Answer:
228 individual cookies.
Step-by-step explanation:
To convert 19 dozen cookies to individual cookies, we first have to identify that:
[tex]dozen=12[/tex]
If a dozen is equal to 12, to solve, we simply must multiply the amount of dozens, which is 19, by a dozen, which is 12:
[tex]19*12=[/tex]
[tex]228[/tex]
Therefore, there are 228 individual cookies.

We can check our work by dividing the individual number of cookies, 228, by dividing buy the amount of dozens, 19, and a dozen, 12:
[tex]228[/tex] ÷ [tex]19=12[/tex]
[tex]228[/tex] ÷ [tex]12=19[/tex]
As you can see, our quotients are the two figures we started with, and when multiplied together, give us 228 individual cookies; therefore, our solution is correct!
