Answer:
3/4 cookies

Step-by-step explanation:
There are 4 friends and 3 same sized cookies. To divide the cookies equally between the 4 friends, we divide the number of cookies by the number of friends as follows:
share of each friend = number of cookies / number of friends = 3/4 cookies

Hope this helps :)
