Question

The baker baked 1,176 cookies for Christmas. She wanted to put 9 cookies into each container. How many containers of cookies did she make?

Answer 1

So, the baker made 130 containers of cookies.

Explanation:

To find the number of containers the baker made, divide the total number of cookies by the number of cookies in each container:

Number of containers =
`(Total \\\\\\ number \\\\ of \\\\ cookies )/(Cookies\\ \\per\\ \\ container)`

In this case:

Number of containers=
`(1176)/(9) = 130`

Number of containers=130
