Answer:

13

Step-by-step explanation:

Make an equation. Let x represent the bags that Frances sold. Since Lupe sold 3 times the popcorn Frances did, use multiplication.

[tex]39=3x[/tex]

Solve for x to find the amount Frances sold:

Divide both sides by 3:

[tex]\frac{39}{3}=\frac{3x}{3} \\\\13=x[/tex]

[tex]x=13[/tex]

Frances sold 13 bags.
