I was baking 20 cookies for my family and me. My family has 8 people in it. My four friends came over, and wanted some I said sure. How many cookies could they have if Each person in my family had a cookie?

3 each if there are 4 friends. 20-8 family members =12 cookies, so 12 divided by 4 friends is 3 each. 3*4=12

I have removed your other unhelpful responses this morning. Steve (one of our recognized tutors here) answered each one well -- with explanations.

The answer you provided here is OK because you gave an explanation, not just the answer and not other useless information.

To determine how many cookies your friends can have if each person in your family has one, you first need to calculate the total number of cookies that would be consumed by your family.

Since your family consists of 8 people and each person gets one cookie, the total number of cookies for your family is 8.

Next, you need to subtract the number of cookies for your family from the total number of cookies you baked. In this case, you baked 20 cookies. So, the number of cookies available for your friends would be calculated as:

Total number of cookies - Number of cookies for your family = Number of cookies for your friends
20 - 8 = 12

Therefore, your friends can have 12 cookies in total.
