Answer:

1600/12 equals 133.33333333333333 and it keeps going

Explanation:

to write 1600/12 as a decimal you have to divide numerator by the denominator of the fraction. We divide now 1600 by 12 what we write down as 1600/12 and we get 133.33333333333

132 * 12 = 1,584

Because 1,600 is more than 1584, 132 bags will not be enough.

1600/12 = 133.33...

Therefore, you would need 134 bags to fit all 1600 cookies.
