Alex is making circular cookies for her business. The radius of each cookie is 6 cm. How many cookies would fit in a rectangular box which she made for packaging if the area of the base of the box is 288cm2?
------------
The area of each cookie is 36*pi = ~ 113 sq cms
-------
If the width of the box is less than 12 cms ---> zero (0) unless they're placed "vertically."
The height of the box is not given.
A useless problem.
