Answer:

56 Chocolate Chip cookies

Explanation:

To find the answer first add up all of the cookies, in this case, 40+40+40+40 witch equals 160. then find 35% of that. This can be done by dividing 160 by 100 to get 1% then multiplying that by 35 to get 35% witch is 56. Therefore you have 56 Chocolate Chip cookies.
