To find out how many model spaceships Sylvester has, we can first set up an equation based on the given information.
Let's say Sylvester has x model spaceships.
Given that Bobby has 3 times as many model spaceships as Sylvester, we can express Bobby's number of spaceships as 3x.
And we know that Bobby has 21 spaceships, so we can write the equation:
3x = 21
To solve for x (the number of spaceships Sylvester has), we divide both sides of the equation by 3:
3x / 3 = 21 / 3
x = 7
Therefore, Sylvester has 7 model spaceships.
