Jill and Gina are baking cookies Joe put chocolate icing on every eighth cookie and Gina put sprinkles in every fifth cookie if they make four dozen cookies how many cookies will have both icing and sprinkles

There will be only 1 cookie (40th one) which contains both icing and sprinkles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of cookies baked = 4 dozens.

1 dozen = 12 cookies

4 dozens =

Chocolate icing on 8 cookie.

Sprinkles on 5 cookie.

We need to find the number of cookies which will have both icing and sprinkles.

Solution:

Now we know that;

Joe put chocolate icing on every 8 cookie.

Number of cookies which have Chocolate icing = {8 , 16, 24, 32, 40, 48}

Gina put sprinkles in every 5 cookie.

Number of cookies which have sprinkles ={5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40,45}

From above we can see that;

number of cookies which will have both icing and sprinkles = {40}

Hence There will be only 1 cookie (40th one) which contains both icing and sprinkles.
