You would need 21 eggs for that.

curtisports2 · Answer

Divide ounces and multiply the result with eggs.  87.5/12.5 = 7.  7 x 3 = 21.

This is simple math.
Divide 87.5 by 12.5, then multiply by 3

? · Answer

12.50 oz of cornbread = 3 eggs
and you want to know how many eggs for 87.50 oz of cornbread.

In other words .. if 12.50 is 3 then 87.50 is ?

87.50 divided by 12.50 = 7

Which tells you that 87.50 is 7 times as much cornbread

So you'll need 7 times as many eggs as well

3 x 7

21 eggs
