The number of cookies each person will get varies inversely with the number of people at the party. If there are 24 people at the party, then everyone will get 4 cookies. How many cookies will everyone get if there are 32 people?

If there are 24 people and each gets 4 cookies then that means there are a total of 96 cookies. So if you divided out 96 cookies to each of the 32 people then each person would have 3 cookies.
