Answer:

Nicole will use 25 bags for the cookies

Explanation:

To solve this problem we first have to calculate the total number of cookies, for this we have to add the chocolate chip cookies and the peanut butter cookies

chocolate chip cookies = 144

peanut butter cookies = 56

total cookies = 144 + 56

total cookies = 200

Now we divide by 8 which is the amount that goes into each bag

200 / 8 = 25

Nicole will use 25 bags for the cookies.
