    144 total cookies

    Step-by-step explanation:

    First, set up a proportion to find out how many red cookies there are. 4 over 5 is equal to x over 80. Cross-multiply and you will get 64 red cookies. This question is asking how many total cookies there are, so you would add the red and yellow cookies together. 64 plus 80 is 144 total cookies.
