Answer:

24 cookies increased by 25% is 30 cookies

step by step explination:

If you want to increase a number by a certain percentage, follow these steps:

1. Divide the number you wish to increase by 100 to find 1% of it.

2. Multiply 1% by your chosen percentage.

3. Add this number to your original number.

4. There you go, you have just added a percentage increase to a number!
