d. 16

Answer 1

Using the provided recipe, 1 dozen eggs can make 16 waffles, given that 3 eggs are needed for a batch of 4 waffles and we have 12 eggs available.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate how many waffles can be made from 1 dozen eggs with the given recipe, we need to set up a ratio based on the recipe's requirement of eggs per waffle batch. The recipe indicates that 3 eggs are needed to make 4 waffles. We have 1 dozen eggs, which equals 12 eggs. By setting up a proportion, we determine how many sets of 3 eggs we have in a dozen, which will tell us how many sets of 4 waffles we can make.

The calculation is as follows:

1. Divide the total number of eggs by the number of eggs required per batch: 12 eggs ÷ 3 eggs/batch = 4 batches.
2. Multiply the number of batches by the number of waffles made per batch: 4 batches x 4 waffles/batch = 16 waffles.

Therefore, from 1 dozen eggs, assuming you have enough of all other ingredients, you can make 16 waffles.
