Answer:

42 students in total

Explanation:

we could surmise that the question wishes to find the minimum number of students who had been in Mr. Jone's algebra class, so we let 'x' represent the original count of students in the class and we have the following inequality:

14 <= x/3

x >= 42

the class had no less than 42 students
