How many more squirrels did the second student count? ** The second student counted 12/3 = 4 more squirrels than the first student.
How many squirrels did the second student count? ** The second student counted 12+4 = <<12+4=16>>16 squirrels.
How many squirrels did both students count combined? ** Together, the first and second student counted 12+16 = <<12+16=28>>28 squirrels combined.
