Trina had 50 eggs. After using some of her eggs to make 12 batches of brownies, she has 14 eggs remaining. How many eggs do Trina use in one batch of brownies

Answer 1

If she started with 50 and had 14 left over when she was done, then she used (50 - 14) eggs. To find out how many eggs were required per batch, we divide the number of eggs used by the number of batches she made so:

(50 - 14)/12 = 36/12 = 3

She used 3 eggs per batch
