A recipe requires 2 eggs for every 5 dozen cookies. At this rate, how many eggs are required for 30 dozen cookies?

Answer 1

The recipe requires 2 eggs for every 5 dozen cookies.

To find the number of eggs required for 30 dozen cookies, we can first find the number of sets of 5 dozen cookies in 30 dozen cookies.

30 dozen cookies is equal to 30 / 5 = 6 sets of 5 dozen cookies.

For each set of 5 dozen cookies, 2 eggs are required.

Therefore, for 6 sets of 5 dozen cookies, 2 x 6 = <<2*6=12>>12 eggs are required.

Thus, 12 eggs are required for 30 dozen cookies. Answer: \boxed{12}.
