Janice has a pack of 36 cookies. She splits the cookies equally among herself and eight of her friends. With the cookies she has left, she eats one and puts the rest in a bag for later. How many cookies does she put in the bag?

3 right because there are 8 friends counting her, which is 9 so 36 cookies divided by 9 is 4 so they each get 4. janice doesn't eat all her cookies and she eats one and puts the other 3 in her bag...?
