A fundraiser was set up to sell cookies in packages of 12. On the morning of the last day of the fundraiser, it was estimated that 204 cookies were sold. By the afternoon, it was confirmed that p less packages were sold than estimated.

Create an expression that will represent the number of packages of cookies that were sold for the fundraiser.

Let x be the number of packages of cookies sold.

The relationship between the cookies sold and the packages sold is given by:
12 (number of cookies in a package) x = 204
x = 204 / 12
x = 17

p less packages were sold, so the number of packages sold would be 17 - p.

Therefore, the expression that represents the number of packages of cookies sold is:
17 - p.
