Annabelle has 63 pencils.

Given:

Annabelle, Belle, and Charisse have 349 pencils.

Annabelle has 3 times as many pencils as Belle.

Charisse has 202 pencils more than Annabelle.

To Find:

The number of pencils Annabelle had.

Solution:

Let us assume that:

The number of pencils Belle has = B.

Since Annabelle has 3 times as many pencils as Belle,

The number of pencils Annabelle has = 3B.

Also, Charisse has 202 pencils more than Annabelle.

Hence, the number of pencils Charisse has = 202 + 3B.

We are given that the total number of pencils Annabelle, Belle, and Charisse have = 349.

⇒ B + 3B + 202 + 3B = 349

⇒ 7B = 147

⇒ B = 21.

Hence, the number of Annabelle has = 3B = 63.

∴ Annabelle has 63 pencils.
