Answer:
D. 432
Explanation:
To find out this question you need to find out how many cookies you have of each type. we know we have 120 chocolate chip cookies. There are 42 fewer oatmeal cookies than chocolate chip cookies so we take 120 and minus 42.
120 - 42 = 78
There are 78 oatmeal cookies. now we want to find out how many peanut butter cookies we have. There are 3 times as many peanut butter cookies than oatmeal cookies so we times 77 with 3.
78 × 3 = 234
Now we know how many cookies are in all the types, we need to find the total number of all cookies in the grocery store.
120 + 78 + 234 = 432
therefore the answer will be D. 432
Hope this helps :)
