She can only make 12 bags because there are only 12 cookies and all the bags need to be identical

First you want to find the GCF (greatest common factor) of both numbers so you can figure out the amount of snack bags Destiny can make

1, 2, 3 ,6, 9, 18

1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12

Destiny can make 6 snack bags

Hope that helped!
