Answer:

Natalie got 3, Veronica got 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

N = Natalie

If Veronica got 3 times as many as Natalie, then she got 3N.

Add them together:

N + 3N = 12

4N = 12

N = 3

Therefore,

Natalie got 3 (N = 3)

Veronica got 9 (3N = 3 x 3 = 9)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

X = Natalie

Y = Veronica  

Veronica got three times as many presents as Natalie so 3x and Natalie is x and this all equals 12.

3x+x=12

=   4x=12

So, now solve the equation

÷4      ÷4

   x=3 = Natalie

12-3=9

   y=9 = Veronica
