Note: I think the length is supposed to be the height of 1 cookie.
The volume of the 12 cookies (1 dozen=12) is 176,715 in^3
The area of 1 cookie is 5 in
Area = pi * r^2
Area of one cookie = 3.14 * 5^2
Area of one cookie = 78.5 in ^2 Note this is also the area of the base of the container.
Height of the 12 cookies = Volume / Area of one cookie
Height of the 12 cookies = 176.715/78,5
Height of the 12 cookies = 2.25 inches.
Answer
Thickness (height) of one cookie = 2.25/12
Thickness (height) of one cookie = .188 inches.
