Francois baked just enough cookies to fill all the orders at his bakery. While the cookies were cooling, a kitchen assistant knocked over a cooling rack and spilled 12% of the cookies onto the floor. Francois had to bake 36 more cookies to replace them.

How many cookies were ordered in total?

So we can write

12% of x = 36

12/100 x = 36

x = 36 x 100/ 12

x= 300

So, 300 cookies were ordered in total.
