Answer:

Je vais en prendre trois.

Step-by-step explanation:

In French, the pronoun « en » replaces a verb introduced by the word « de ». For example, when saying « tu veux un peu de chocolat? » (« do you want a bit of chocolate? ») one could respond with « oui, j’en veux! » (« yes, I want some! »). « En, » like any other pronoun, serves to eliminate repetition. Corralling back to the initial question, which is asking how many baguettes you will take, instead of repeating the word « baguette, » one could say « en. » Thus, we are left with the sentence « Je vais en prendre trois. »

(another note: the « en » usually, if not always, goes before the verb in the sentence.)
