Answer:

11 grades of 85 did Brenda, Robert, and Timothy receive altogether.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 6x be the number of 85 received by Brenda.

The number of 85 received by Robert is 1/3 of Brenda= 2x

The number of 85 received by Timothy is 1/2 of Brenda= 3x

Then according to the given conditions

6x+ 2x+ 3x

= 11x

So  the number of total 85s received by all the three is 11.

11 grades of 85 did Brenda, Robert, and Timothy receive altogether.
