Answer 2

${\huge {\mathfrak {\green {Answer :}}}}$

Buddy, its simple, u just need to think a little deep.

Total cookies sold = 204.

Each package containing cookies = 12.

Thus, number of packages sold

= 204/12 = 17.

Again, it was confirmed that 'p' packages were less sold than estimated.

➡️ $<b>Hence, total number of packages sold were = 17 - p </b>$

That's it..
