Question

John bought 36 eggs. How many dozen eggs did he buy?

• A. 3
• B. 4
• C. 6
• D. 12

Answer 1

The correct option is A 3

Total number of eggs = 36

As 1 dozen contains 12 eggs, let "n" be the number of dozens contains 36 eggs

$\therefore$ Number of dozens, $n=\frac{\text{total number of eggs}}{\text{number of eggs in 1 dozen}}$
$n=\frac{36}{12}=3$
