96 cookies
Explanation
Step 1
find the numbers of cookies ave and skylar made
to do that, multiply the fracion by the total , so
a)
Ava media 1/3 of the cookies, so
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{Ava} \\ \frac{1}{3}\cdot360=120 \end{gathered}[/tex]hence
Ava made 120 cookies
b) Skylar made 2/5 of the cookies, so
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{Skylar} \\ \frac{2}{5}\cdot360=\frac{720}{5}=144 \end{gathered}[/tex]therefore
Skylar made 144 cookies
Step 2
Jared and Jackson evenly split the remaining cookies that needed to be made
a) find the total of remaining cookies
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{remaining cookies= total -ava-skylare} \\ \text{remaining cookies=}360-120-144=96 \end{gathered}[/tex]so, the reamining cookies is 96
b) Jared and Jackson made teh same number of cookies, so
[tex]\text{jared}=\text{ jackson= }\frac{96}{2}=48[/tex]so, Jackson made 48 cookies
c) finally, to know How many more cookies skyler made
than Jackson?
let
diffrence= skylar-jackson
replacing
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{difference}=\text{ 144-48} \\ \text{difference}=96 \end{gathered}[/tex]so, the anwer is
96 cookies
