+305 If theres is 10 dozen cupcakes and there are 3 people how many cupcakes do each person get.
1 dozen = 12 cupcakes, so ten dozen = 10 x 12 (120 cupcakes)
If there are three people, divide the total number of cupcakes (120) by the number of people (3).
The answer is 40 (120 / 3).
In a formula, let x represent the answer you are seeking (the number of cupcakes for each person).
x = 10*12 / 3
x = 120 / 3
x = 40
