Emily baked 3 batches of sugar cookies each. She ate 2 of the cookies and gave 10 of them to her neighbor. In return, her neighbor gave her half of a batch of a dozen chocolate chip cookies. How many cookies does Emily have.

The answer is 198.

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to know how much is a batch of cookies which is 60. Since she made 3 batches that means you will need to multiply 3 by 60, which will give you 180 cookies. Next you will need to add 2 to 10 because thats how much were took. That equals 12. Subtract 12 from 180 and that will give you 168. Last but not least you will need to add 30 because that is half the batch of cookies her neighbor gave to her. So 168 plus 30 equals 198.
