Respuesta :

Answer: There are 20 chips that the company claim in each cookie.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of chips each cookie has be 'c'.

Number of cookies = 10

Number of chips = 200

so, our equation would be

[tex]10c=200[/tex]

So, we need to find the chips that the company claim in each cookie.

So, it becomes,

[tex]10c=200\\\\c=\dfrac{200}{10}\\\\c=20[/tex]

Hence, there are 20 chips that the company claim in each cookie.
