Answer: There are 26 cookies from the roll.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Thickness of roll = 13 inches

Thickness of cookie that are cut off from the roll =
(1)/(2)

We need to find the number of cookies that are cut off from the roll.

So, Number of cookies is given by


(13)/((1)/(2))=13* 2=26

Hence, there are 26 cookies from the roll.
