Lisa and Maria were baking oatmeal cookies. Lisa baked 24 cookies on Friday and 36 on Saturday. Maria baked the same amount of cookies that Lisa baked on Saturday. How many cookies did they bake altogether?

Answer:

96 cookies.

Step-by-step explanation:

I don't love the wording of the question, but here's what I see:

Lisa Friday: 24

Lisa Saturday: 36

Maria total: 36

Cookie total: 96

-----------------------------------------------------

I can't really tell from how the question is worded if Maria's total was the total of what Lisa made, and she did it all on Saturday, or if Maria baked Lisa's Saturday number of cookies.

If 96 is the wrong answer, then try:

Lisa Friday: 24

Lisa Saturday: 36

Maria total: 60

Cookie total: 120
