Answer:

If there's 10 cookies in the jar, and if 2 are peanut butter, the fraction for peanut butter cookies is 1/5, simplified.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

  • 10 Cookies Total
  • 3 are Oreo cookies
  • 2 are peanut butter cookies
  • 4 are chocolate chip cookies
  • 1 is a sugar cookie

Bolded text represents what we'll be focusing on.

2 of the cookies are peanut butter, and there's 10 cookies total.

As a fraction, the peanut butter cookies are represented as:

2/10.

2/10 represents 2 peanut butter cookies out of 10 cookies altogether.

<u>Simplify:</u>

2/10 can be simplified by dividing both numerator and denominator by 2:

Quotient: 1/5.

1/5 is your answer.
