ANSWER
[tex]48\text{ pennies}[/tex]EXPLANATION
Let the number of pennies Al has be x.
Bev gave 1/2 of what she got from Al to Carl, which means that Bev gave:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{1}{2}\cdot\frac{1}{2}\cdot x \\ \Rightarrow\frac{1}{4}x \end{gathered}[/tex]Carl gave 1/2 of what he got from Bev to Dani, which means that Carl gave:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{1}{2}\cdot(\frac{1}{4}x) \\ \Rightarrow\frac{1}{8}x \end{gathered}[/tex]That is the number that Dani received.
We have that Dani received 6 pennies which means:
[tex]\frac{1}{8}x=6[/tex]Solve for x by multiplying both sides by 8:
[tex]undefined[/tex]
