Answer:

22 cookies

Step-by-step explanation:

A dozen items means 12 number of items.

Number of cookies brought by Sherry = No. of containers multiplied by number of cookies in one container

= 2 $\times$ 6 = 12

Number of cookies brought by Sally = A dozen cookies = 12

Number of cookies brought by Sandy = 2

Number of cookies brought by Sherry, Sally and Sandy together = 12 + 12+2 = 26

Total number of cookies to be brought = 4 dozen = 48 cookies

Number of cookies to be brought by Harry = Total number of cookies to be brought - Number of cookies brought by Sherry, Sally and Sandy together

48 - 26 = <em>22 cookies</em>
