Verified Answer :

She uses 4 eggs because 1/3 of 12 is 4.

Answer:

She used 4 eggs from the carton.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Carton of eggs has 12 eggs

           Nita used \(\frac{1}{3}\) of a carton.

To find: No of eggs she used.

No. of eggs in a carton = 12

⇒ Total no. of eggs = 12

No of eggs she use = \(\frac{1}{3}\,of\,total\,no.\,of\,eggs\)

                                 = \(\frac{1}{3}\times12\)

                                 = \(\frac{1\times12}{3}\)

                                 = \(\frac{12}{3}\)

                                 = 4

Therefore, She used 4 eggs from the carton
