Mimi picked up 2 dozen seashells on the beach. Kyle found twice as many shells as Mimi and put them in his pocket. Leigh grabbed one-third of the shells that Kyle found. How many seashells did Leigh have? Let's be accurate as possible.
Mimi has 2 x 12 = 24 sea shells. Kyle has 24 x 2 = 48 sea shells. Leigh has 48 / 3 = 16 sea shells.
The answer: 16.
