Answer:
30 cookies
Step-by-step explanation:
Reeba sells [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] of [tex]3\frac{3}{4}[/tex] of 12 chocolate chip cookies.
Let us start by finding [tex]3\frac{3}{4}[/tex] of 12. We simply have to multiply the two numbers. However, it would be much easier if we had an improper fraction than a mixed number. Let us make [tex]3\frac{3}{4}[/tex] an improper fraction first.
[tex]3\frac{3}{4} =\frac{15}{4}[/tex]
Ok! Let's multiply.
[tex]\frac{15}{4} *\frac{12}{1} =\\15*3\\=45[/tex]
Ok, Reeba baked 45 cookies in total. We know that she sells [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] of her baked cookies, so we can again multiply the two numbers.
[tex]\frac{2}{3} *\frac{45}{1} =\\2*15=\\30[/tex]
Therefore, Reeba sold 30 cookies.
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions :)
