Number of cookies Tom sold:
----------------------------------------------------
60% of 90 = 0.6 x 90 = 54

----------------------------------------------------
Number of cookies Scott sold:
----------------------------------------------------
2/3 of 150 = 100

----------------------------------------------------
Number of cookies Dawn sold:
----------------------------------------------------
46 (Given)

----------------------------------------------------
Total number of cookies sold:
----------------------------------------------------
54 + 100 + 46 = 200

----------------------------------------------------
Percentage of cookies sold by Dawn:
----------------------------------------------------
46/200 x 100 = 23%

----------------------------------------------------
Answer: Dawn sold 23% of the cookies that were sold.
