well, a pair of students means two. if there are 24 students then there are: 24/2 = 12 pairs of students.
9 pairs already got their magnets. 12 - 9 = 3 pairs still need magnets.
each pair gets 3 magnets. So he needs 3*3 = 9 more magnets

2 students equal a pair, 9 pairs equal 18 students, which leave 6 students left. that remains 3 pairs, which need 3 magnets each pair. (3*3=9) Mr. Sato needs 9 magnets.
