Answer:

40 cookies

Step-by-step explanation

Jackson has 14 chocolate cookies.

And the number of peanut butter cookies = 14-9=5 [ because 9 fewer peanut butter cookies than the chocolate cookies ]

And the number of sugar cookies = 5+17=21 [ because 17 more sugar cookies than the peanut butter cookies ]

Therefore, Total number of cookies Jackson have = 14+5+21=40 cookies
