How many desserts are at the bake sale in all?

300

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of desserts is x. we don't know what it is.

40% of all the desserts are cookies.

That is 40% of x.

We are told that 120 of the desserts are cookies.

That means that 40% of all desserts amount to 120.

40% of x = 120

0.4x = 120

Divide both sides by 0.4

0.4x/0.4 = 120/0.4

x = 300

In all there are 300 desserts.
