Answer:

28

Step-by-step explanation:

John ate 6/7 of total biscuits, let the total number of biscuits is 'x'

(6/7)(x) = 24

6x = 24*7

6x = 168

x = 28

Answer:

28

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply by the reciprocal of [tex]\frac{6}{7}[/tex] , that is [tex]\frac{7}{6}[/tex] , then

[tex]\frac{7}{6}[/tex] × 24 = 7 × 4 = 28 ← biscuits he had to start with
