How many cookies are lemon cookies?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The number of lemon cookies is 75

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The total cookies are 300

Let

x ----> the number of lemon cookies

[tex]x=300(1-\frac{1}{2} -\frac{3}{20}-\frac{1}{10})[/tex]

Multiply by 20 both sides to remove the fractions

[tex]20x=300(20)-300(10)-300(3)-300(2)[/tex]

[tex]20x=1,500[/tex]

[tex]x=75[/tex]

therefore

The number of lemon cookies is 75
