300 cookies were ordered to start.
We can tell this because we know 12% is equal to 36. Because this is true, we can set up a proportion to solve. All proportions can be set up with the small number on top and the total on the bottom. This will help you solve for the missing number, which is in this case the total number of cookies. Let x be the total number of cookies.
Percentage/total percentage = cookies/cookies total
12/100 = 36/x
Now we can cross multiply to solve.
(100)(36) = (12)(x) ----> multiply
3600 = 12x ---> divide by 12
300 = x

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
it is 35
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a rhombus and in any rhombus, the diagonals intersects in the middle and they are perpendicular:
So all 4 triangles are right triangles and the sides are the hypotenuses.
1st) Calculate the sides: hypotenuse² = 3² + 4² = 25, and hypotenuse = 5
The area of each right triangle is (4 x 3)/2 = 6 units²
And the area of the 4 right triangles = 4 x 6 = 24 init²
