Question

I have one dozen eggs and I discover hot only 1/3 of the broken and I need use 1/6 how many I have left

Answer 1

`X=2`

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Total eggs
`n=12`

Broken eggs
`n_b=1/3n=4`

Used eggs
`n_u=1/6n=2`

Generally the equation for amount of eggs left X is mathematically given by

`12=X+n_b+n_u`

`12=X+4+2`

`X=(12)/(6)`

`X=2`
