Let me help to you both.

The sequence is 


    day   eat per day      cumulative sum (same as TOTAL)

     1        3                        3
     2        3                        6
     3        3                        9
     4        3                       12

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 


The TOTAL is the Arithmetic progression with the first term  = 3  and  the common difference  d = 3.

Solved.
