When Ada got to the store, she found that they only had 330 eggs. What is the largest number of egg tarts she can make with this amount of eggs?

Answer:

120

Egg. Egg tarts

2.75 = 1

330 = 1 x 330 divided by 2.75 = 120

Assuming Ada needs 3 eggs for one egg tart, she can make the largest number of egg tarts by dividing the total number of eggs (330) by the eggs per tart, resulting in 110 egg tarts.

The number of egg tarts Ada can make depends on the recipe and the number of eggs needed for each tart. Let's assume that Ada needs n eggs to make one egg tart. The largest number of egg tarts she can make is found by dividing the total number of eggs by the number of eggs needed for one tart:


\[ \text{Number of tarts} = \frac{\text{Total number of eggs}}{\text{Eggs per tart}} \]

If Ada needs, for example, 3 eggs to make one egg tart, then:


\[ \text{Number of tarts} = (330)/(3) = 110 \]

So, Ada can make 110 egg tarts with 330 eggs, assuming each tart requires 3 eggs. The actual number would depend on the specific recipe and the number of eggs needed for each egg tart.
