To solve this problem, we need to subtract the number of cookies Skyler has already decorated from the total number of cookies he made.

Total number of cookies made: 23
Number of cookies decorated: 14

To find the remaining fraction that Skyler still needs to decorate, we subtract the number of decorated cookies from the total number of cookies:

23 - 14 = 9

So, Skyler still needs to decorate 9 cookies.

To represent this fractionally, we can write it as:

Start Fraction 9 over 23 End Fraction
that not a answer
Apologies for the confusion. Let's solve the problem again.

Total number of cookies made: 23
Number of cookies decorated: 14

To find the remaining fraction that Skyler still needs to decorate, we subtract the number of decorated cookies from the total number of cookies:

23 - 14 = 9

So, Skyler still needs to decorate 9 cookies.

To represent this fractionally, we can write it as:

Start Fraction 9 over 23 End Fraction
