a) 12x - 48 or 6(2x - 8)

b) 18x - 48 or 6(3x - 8)

Step-by-step explanation:

A small box holds 6 eggs

A large box holds 12 eggs.

Hina buys x small box of eggs

Hina also buys (x-4) large box of eggs

a) Total number of eggs in the large box by Hina = (x-4)12

= 12x - 48

= 6(2x - 8)

b) Total number of eggs bought by Hina = (x) 6 + (x-4)12

= 6x + 12x - 48

= 18x - 48

= 6(3x - 8)
