Answer: 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Sara and friends ate 60% of the container of cookies, it means that they ate 60% of 40 cookies.

∴

How many cookies Sara and Friends ate = total × (percentage of cookie ate)

                                                                    = 40 × 0.60

                                                                    = 24
