Answer:

B: 12

Explanation:

1 cookie without nuts + 3 cookies with nuts = 4 cookies

1 cookie without +3 cookies with = 4 cookies

1 cookie without + 3 cookies with = 4 cookies

1 cookie without + 3 cookies with = 4 cookies

4+4+4+4=16

1 cookie without + 1 cookie without + 1 cookies without + 1 cookie without = 4 cookies without.

16 cookies total -4 cookies without=12 cookies with.

12 cookies have the nuts
