Mindy took all the cookies out of Mom’s cookie jar and counted them. She counted

• 12 chocolate chip

• 24 sugar

• 16 almond

• 21 peanut butter

Part A.

Mindy explains there are 613 cookies because 2 + 4 + 6 + 1 = 13. She writes down 13. Then 1 + 2 + 1 + 2 = 6 in the tens place so she writes down 6 in front of the 13.

Explain why Mindy’s reasoning is incorrect. Find the total number of cookies there are altogether.
