Answer 1

Shenika invites 7 friends and each one gets 5 cookies.

= 7*5

= 35

Based on above answer, Shenika will need a total of 35 cookies for all.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Each box has 12 cookies.

Total cookies = 35

Let the number of boxes be x.

12*x = 35

x = 35/12

x = 2.9

This means she would need 3 boxes.
