Question

if there are 12 eggs in a dozen and there are 6.0 g protein in each egg how many grams of protein are in 1.75 dozen eggs

Answer 1

126g of protein.

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Number of eggs in a dozen = 12eggs

Mass of protein per egg = 6g/egg

Number of dozens = 1.75eggs

Unknown:

Mass of protein in 1.75dozen eggs  = ?

Solution:

This is a typical rate problem;

  We have been given that;

            1 dozen = 12 eggs

so       1.75 dozen = 21 eggs

1.75 dozen implies that the we have a dozen and three quarter dozen of eggs.

                                                            12    +    $\frac{3}{4}$ x 12 = 21eggs

Now since an egg contains 6g of protein;

                    1 egg = 6g of protein

                   21 eggs will contain 21 x 6 = 126g of protein.
