1 dozen = 12
First you would multiply.
3.25 x 12 = 39 cupcakes total
1/3 x 12 = 4 cupcakes with vanilla icing
Then you subtract.
39 - 4 = 35 cupcakes with chocolate icing
Then to get the answer back in to terms of dozens, divide by 12.
35/12 = 2 11/12
Hope this helped

a dozen is 12 so 3 and 1/4 dozen would be 39 cupcakes
1/3 of 39 is 13
39 - 13 is 26
so, 26 cupcakes would have chocolate icing which would be 2 1/6 dozen
