Answer 1

Answer:

24 eggs there before the additional eggs were added.

Step-by-step explanation:

After adding 12 eggs you have 36 eggs in tray.

To get the previous eggs value, we simply subtract 12 from 36:

36-12 = 24

Answer 2

There were 24 eggs before
let the number of eggs before in the tray be x.
then the equation becomes
x+12=36
