Question

After collecting eggs from his chickens. Dale puts the eggs into cartons to sell. Dale fills 15 cartons and has 7 eggs left over. Each carton holds 12 eggs. How many eggs did Dale collect?

Answer 1

187 eggs were collected

Explanation:

If each carton holds 12 eggs and he filled 15 cartons, then you do 15 multiplied by 12. And since there were 7 eggs left over, you add those to the answer to 12 multiplied 15 and you get 187.
