Answer :

I am bringing 5 dozen cookies to my class. There is 27 students in my class. Only 18 students are here. If there is 9 students absent , how many cookies will each student get ?

So firts you multiply 5 by 12 and that equals 60, than you subtract 27 and 9 and that equals 18, also you will multiply 18 by 60 and that equals 1080, lat but not least you will need to add 9 cookies and then you have 1089, you can divid 1089 by 18 and that equals 60 cookies for each student.
I hope this the right answer and I hoped this helped.

2¹/₂ cookies

Further explanation

Given:

  • Mrs. Diaz makes 5 dozen cookies for her class.
  • One-ninth of her 27 students are absent the day she brings the cookies.
  • She shares the cookies equally among the students who are present.

Question:

How many cookies will each student get?

The Process:

Step-1

Mrs. Diaz makes 5 dozen cookies for her class.

[tex]\boxed{ \ 1 \ dozen = 12 \ units \ }[/tex]

[tex]\boxed{ \ 5 \ dozen = ? \ units \ }[/tex]

[tex]\boxed{ \ 5 \times 12 = 60 \ cookies \ }[/tex]

Step-2

One-ninth of her 27 students are absent the day she brings the cookies.

[tex]\boxed{ \ \frac{1}{9} \times 27 \ students = 3 \students \ are \ absent \ }[/tex]

In diagram, [tex]Total \ students: \boxed{3}\boxed{3}\boxed{3}\boxed{3}\boxed{3}\boxed{3}\boxed{3}\boxed{3}\boxed{3} = 27[/tex]

3 students are absent, that is [tex]\boxed{3}[/tex]

So, the number of students present is 27 - 3 = 24 students, or [tex]\boxed{3}\boxed{3}\boxed{3}\boxed{3}\boxed{3}\boxed{3}\boxed{3}\boxed{3} = 24[/tex]

Step-3

And now, let's find out how many cookies will each student get.

[tex]\boxed{ \ 24 \ students = 60 \ cookies \ }[/tex]

[tex]\boxed{ \ 1 \ students = \ ? \ cookies \ }[/tex]

[tex]\boxed{ \ 60 \div 24 = \frac{60}{24} \ }[/tex]

[tex]\boxed{ \ 60 \div 24 = \frac{60 \div 12}{24 \div 12} \ }[/tex]

[tex]\boxed{ \ 60 \div 24 = \frac{5}{2} \ }[/tex]

Thus, each student get [tex]\boxed{\boxed{ \ \frac{5}{2} \ or \ 2\frac{1}{2} \ cookies \ }}[/tex]
