<human>:  Susan walked to the market to buy five dozen peaches. To carry them home, she brought two identically-sized cloth bags and a much smaller knapsack. Into the knapsack she placed half as many peaches as she placed in each of the two cloth bags. How many peaches did she put in the knapsack?
<bot>: How many peaches are there? ** 5 dozen peaches is 5*12=<<5*12=60>>60 peaches.
Define a variable ** Let "x" be the number of peaches put into the knapsack.
Write an equation ** Thus, the total number of peaches is x+(2*x)+(2*x)=60.
Simplify ** Simplifying the expression, we see that 5*x=60.
Divide by 5 ** Dividing each side of the equation by 5, we see that x=12 peaches,
#### 12
