the answer is 36/44 which of we reduce it by dividing both sides by 4 you'll get 9/11
so the answer you'll write down is 9/11

-all you have to do is take the number of cookies in total as the denominator and the numerator is the amount of cookies left when you subtract 44-8=36 And once you get your answer you try to reduce the number to the lowest fraction which in this case is 9/11 :D

Answer:

9/11

Explanation:

36 of the 44 cookies remain. As a fraction, that is 36/44 = 9/11.
