Answer: 12 x =56

Explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write an equation with the information given.

Number of eggs = 12 (Since a dozen is equal to 12 units)

Total weight = 56

So, we have to multiply the number of eggs (12) by the weight of each one (x is the variable), and that expression must be equal to the total weight of the eggs (56)

Mathematically speaking:

12 x =56
