so,
X - 12 = X/3

on solving X=18

Answer / simkiarasu

each having x bullets
each of them shoot 4 times
total number of bullets remaining is x
so (3*4)+x=3*x
12=3x-x
12=2x
x=12/2
x=6
Answer:
each divided 6 bullets
Total no of bullets is 18.

Answer / keyur

Suppose there are 3X bullets. Each one gets X bullets..
After shot of 4 bullets. remaining bullets X - 4

(X-4)+(X-4)+(X-4)=X
so 3X-12=X
so X=6


So original bullets are 18 bullets...(3*6=18)

Answer / ashutosh

Suppose intially they had -> B bullets

After division
each had = B/3 bullets

After firing 4 bullets
each left with = (B/3 - 4)bullets

Total=3(B/3 - 4)bullets

3(B/3 - 4)= B/3 bullets


Therefore

Total Bullets =18.
