Answer:

34 cookies

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of chocolate chip cookies are 3/5th of 40

Number of Peanut Butter cookies are 2/4th of 40

We find them and ADD both to figure out how many are there altogether. Let's do each multiplication. Shown below:

Number of Chocolate Chip Cookies = [tex]\frac{3}{5}*40=\frac{120}{5}=24[/tex]  cookies

Number of Peanut Butter Cookies = [tex]\frac{1}{4}*40=\frac{40}{4}=10[/tex]  cookies

In total = 24 + 10 = 34 cookies.
