Let the total number of cookies baked by Vince's mom be represented by \( x \). According to the problem, the 3 cookies that Vince ate represent 25% of the total cookies. This can be expressed mathematically as:
\[
3 = 0.25x
\]
To find \( x \), we can solve for \( x \) by dividing both sides of the equation by 0.25:
\[
x = \frac{3}{0.25}
\]
Calculating the right side:
\[
x = 3 \div 0.25 = 3 \times 4 = 12
\]
Thus, the total number of cookies that Vince's mom baked is
\[
\boxed{12}
\]
\[
3 = 0.25x
\]
To find \( x \), we can solve for \( x \) by dividing both sides of the equation by 0.25:
\[
x = \frac{3}{0.25}
\]
Calculating the right side:
\[
x = 3 \div 0.25 = 3 \times 4 = 12
\]
Thus, the total number of cookies that Vince's mom baked is
\[
\boxed{12}
\]
