Give the step-by-step reasoning process and then the final answer. Kendra baked cookies for her family. Each batch contains 12 cookies. His family has 4 total people. She made three batches. Each cookie contains 2 chocolate chips. How many chips does each family member eat if they all get the same number of cookies?
She made 36 cookies because 12 x 3 = 36. These contain 72 chocolate chips because 36 x 2 = 72. They each get to eat 18 chocolate chips because 72 / 4 = 18.
The final answer: 18.
