Answer:

Olga will use 10 eggs, while Sonja will use 8, thus Olga will use more eggs.

Explanation:

Given that Sonja uses 8 of the 12 eggs in her dozen eggs to make a breakfast casserole, while Olga uses 5/6 of a dozen eggs to make scrambled eggs, the following calculations must be performed to determine who uses more eggs:

Sonja = 8/12 = 0.666 x 12 = 8

Olga = 5/6 = 0.83333 x 12 = 10

Therefore, Olga will use 10 eggs, while Sonja will use 8, thus Olga will use more eggs.
