Answer: There are 26 cookies from the roll.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
Thickness of roll = 13 inches
Thickness of cookie that are cut off from the roll = \(\dfrac{1}{2}\)
We need to find the number of cookies that are cut off from the roll.
So, Number of cookies is given by
\(\dfrac{13}{\dfrac{1}{2}}=13\times 2=26\)
Hence, there are 26 cookies from the roll.
