A farmer collected 12 dozen eggs from her chickens. She sold 5/6 of the eggs at the farmers’ market and gave the rest to friends and neighbors .a. How many dozen eggs did the farmer give away? How many eggs did she give away?

Respuesta :

Answer:   The farmer gave 24 eggs away

Step-by-step explanation:

To start you have to know how many eggs are  in a dozen, and that is 12.  So 12 X 12 is 144.  144/6= 24.  24 is 1/6 of 144 so this is the amount that the farmer gave away.  To check you can do 24 X 6
