October 15, 2026

2018 Test B Math · Question 15 of 57

One day, the Early Bird Restaurant used 15 dozen eggs for 200 breakfast customers. At this rate, approximately how many dozen eggs are needed for 300 breakfast customers?

Show the answer

Correct answer: B

Let $x$ be the number of dozens of eggs for 300 customers. Set up a proportion:

$frac{x}{300}=frac{15}{200}$

$200x=4500$

$x=22.5$

Round up to 23 because you can’t have half an egg.
