Answer:

[tex]\Huge \boxed{\mathrm{8 \ bags}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve the problem with algebra.

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{3}{4} x=6[/tex]

Let x be the number of bags.

Multiply both sides by [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{3}{4} x \cdot \frac{4}{3} =6 \cdot \frac{4}{3}[/tex]

[tex]x=8[/tex]

The number of bags is 8.
