How many cookies has Emma baked in total?
If Emma sells all her cookie packs, how much money will she make?

1 answer

To find out how many cookies Emma has baked in total, we can use the following calculation:

Each pack contains 6 cookies, and Emma has baked 12 packs. Therefore, the total number of cookies is:

\[ \text{Total cookies} = \text{Number of packs} \times \text{Cookies per pack} = 12 \times 6 = 72 \]

Emma has baked a total of 72 cookies.

Next, to calculate how much money Emma will make if she sells all her cookie packs, we can use this calculation:

Each pack is sold for $5, and she has 12 packs. Therefore, the total money she will make is:

\[ \text{Total money} = \text{Number of packs} \times \text{Price per pack} = 12 \times 5 = 60 \]

If Emma sells all her cookie packs, she will make $60.

In summary:

  • Total cookies baked: 72
  • Total money made from selling packs: $60
