My wife baked cookies this year. 40% of the cookies she baked were chocolate chip. If she baked 36 chocolate chip cookies, how many total cookies did she bake

Answer :

Answer:

She baked 90 cookies.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given you know that 36 cookies represent 40% of the cookies that were baked. With this information, you can use a rule of three to find the total mount of cookies that she baked:

36 cookies →  40%

        x         ← 100%

x=(36*100)/40=90

According to this, the answer is that she baked 90 cookies.
