    8 eggs

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Recipe is: 4 eggs for 1 1/2 pounds of flour

    that is equal to 4 eggs for 3/2 pounds of flour

    Then we can apply a rule of three

    If 3/2 pounds of flour is for 4 eggs

    then 3 pounds of flour is for x?

    (3/2) * x = 3*4

    (3/2) * x = 12 ⇒ 3*x = 24

    x = 24/3 ⇒ x = 8
