Let the number of cookies that kate eats be ‘n’
kate : n
nacy : 2n-4
avery : 2(2n-4)

n + 2n-4 + 2(2n+4) = 18
7n - 12 = 16
7n = 28
n = 4

kate : 4
nacy : 2x4 - 4 = 4
avery : 2(2x4 - 4) =8

tekilochka [14]

Answer:

3.5 inches

create a proportion:

inches / miles = inches / miles

<u>1/4</u> = <u> x </u>

18x = 252(1/4)

18x = 63

x = 63 / 18

x = 3.5
