David Sexton · Answer 1

Since you need 112 teaspoons to make 8 muffins to make one muffin you'll need 14 teaspoons. So in order to make 36 muffins (3 dozens) it'll take 14 x 36, which is 504

Brooke Arellano · Answer 2

a dozen is 12 jumbo muffins, so 3 dozen is 36 muffins.

We know how much sugar is needed for 8 muffins, and 36 divided by 8 is equal to 4. So we need four times the previous amount.

1.5 tsp x 4 = 6 teaspoons.
