Question

part b
you have a dozen eggs at home, and you know that with them you can make 100 muffins. if you find that half of the eggs have gone bad and can’t be used, how many muffins can you make?
express your answer as an integer.

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate usable egg count

A dozen eggs = 12 eggs. Half are bad, so usable eggs: $12 \times \frac{1}{2} = 6$

Step2: Relate eggs to muffins

12 eggs make 100 muffins. Muffins per egg: $\frac{100}{12}$
Muffins from 6 eggs: $6 \times \frac{100}{12}$

Step3: Compute final integer value

$6 \times \frac{100}{12} = 50$

Answer:

50
