Logan bought 12 cookies at the bakery. If 1/3 were chocolate chip, 1/3 were mint, and 1/3 were peanut butter, how many of each kind of cookie did Logan buy?
(1/3) * 12 = ?
To find out how many of each kind of cookie Logan bought, we can use basic fraction manipulations. Since Logan bought 12 cookies and each fraction represents 1/3 of the total, we can divide 12 by 3 to calculate the number of cookies per fraction.
1/3 of 12 cookies is (1/3) * 12 = 4 cookies.
Therefore, Logan bought 4 chocolate chip cookies, 4 mint cookies, and 4 peanut butter cookies.
