Below is an instruction that describes a task. Write a response that appropriately completes the request in Swahili. Please answer in Swahili.

### Instruction:
Josh is saving up for a box of cookies. To raise the money, he is going to make bracelets and sell them. It costs $1 for supplies for each bracelet and he sells each one for $1.5. If he makes 12 bracelets and after buying the cookies still has $3, how much did the box of cookies cost?

### Response:
 Gharama ya vifaa vya vikuku 12 ni 12*1 = $<<12*1=12>>12.
Anapata faida ya $.5 kwa kila kikuku kwa sababu 1.5 - 1 = <<1.5-1=.5>>.5
Anapata $6 kwa sababu 12 x .5 = <<12*.5=6>>6
Biskuti ziligharimu $3 kwa sababu 6 - 3 = <<6-3=3>>3
