Answer:


(1)/(48)th

Explanation:

Let X cookies are sold at the local bake sale.

So,


(X)/(4) cookies will be made by Kim.

Now,

Given is One-third of her cookies are chocolate chip.

So, One-third of
(X)/(4) will be chocolate chip

Which is
(X)/(12).

Out of whixh one-fourth have nuts.

So,
(X)/(48) cookies will be having nuts.

So,
(1)/(48)th of the Total cookies at the bake (X) will be having nuts.
