Question

There are 12 eggs in a dozen. if a farmer's chickens produce an average of 464 dozen eggs in a month, how many eggs are reported per month?

Answer 1

The farmer produces 5568 eggs per month by multiplying the 464 dozen eggs by 12 eggs per dozen.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the total number of eggs produced in a month, you need to multiply the number of dozens of eggs by the number of eggs in one dozen. Since one dozen eggs contain 12 eggs, and the farmer's chickens produce an average of 464 dozen eggs, the calculation would be:

464 dozens × 12 eggs/dozen = 5568 eggs

So, the farmer reports a production of 5568 eggs per month.

When identifying numbers and units:

• For one dozen eggs, the number is "one" and the unit is "dozen eggs".
• For 2.54 centimeters, the number is "2.54" and the unit is "centimeters".
• Considering two dozen eggs, the number is "two" and the unit is "dozen eggs" because "dozen" is a way of grouping the unit eggs.

Answer 2

5,568 eggs are reported per month.

Step-by-step explanation:

A farmer's chicken produce an average of 464 dozen eggs in a month.

There are 12 eggs in a dozen.

So we have to convert 464 dozen eggs in to number of eggs.

To convert 464 dozen eggs into number of eggs we simply multiply 464 with 12.

Total number of eggs reported per month = 464 × 12 = 5,568 eggs.

5,568 eggs are reported per month.
