Paco had 27 cookies. 
He ate 28 cookies. 
He gave 25 cookies to his friend. 

We want to know how many more cookies he ate than those he gave to his friend. 

We can solve this problem by subtracting the number of cookies he gave to his friend from the total number of cookies he ate: 

28 - 25 = 3 

Paco ate 3 more cookies than those he gave to his friend.
