Step-by-step explanation:

Well 6 times 8 is 48 so

8 times 3 is 24

24 eggs

Step-by-step explanation:

First, set up the proportion:

3 eggs : 6 dozen cookies = x eggs : 48 dozen cookies

Then cross multiply:

(3)(48)= (6)(x)

Then simplify:

144=6x

Finally, divide both sides by 6 to get your

x=24
