    3 crates are required for 3258 cookies

    Step-by-step explanation:

    since the boxes can have 12 cookies each

    number of boxes = number of cookies / number of cookies per box

    number of boxes = 3,258 cookies / 12 cookies/box = 271.5 boxes = 272 boxes (271 completely filled and one halfway filled)

    since each crate can hold 100 boxes

    number of crates = number of boxes / number of boxes per crate

    number of crates = 272 boxes / 100 boxes/crate = 2,72 crates = 3 crates (2 completely filled and one 72% filled)

    therefore the number of required crates for 3258 cookies is 3
