    18 eggs

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The camp cook has 6 dozen eggs:

    A dozen of egg = 12 pieces of eggs.

    6 dozen of eggs

    = 6*12

    =72 eggs.

    He uses 18 eggs to bake some brownies.

    He uses twice as many eggs (he used for brownies) to make pancakes.

    = 2 * 18

    = 36 eggs

    To know the number of eggs the cook have left, we will subtract all the number of eggs he used, from the total crates he has.

    Total eggs

    = 6 dozens

    = 6*12

    = 72 eggs

    Number of eggs used:

    For brownies:

    = 18 eggs

    For pancakes: Twice brownies

    = 2 * 18

    = 36 eggs

    Sum of used eggs = 18 + 36

    = 54 eggs

    Number of Eggs the cook have left:

    = Total eggs - Used eggs

    = 72 eggs - 54 eggs

    =18 Eggs
