It takes 10 Minutes per dozen

Since threr are 3 dozen eggs to be boiled

10 X 3 = 30

The answer is 30 Minutes

The solution set is { 30 }

Ten minutes if you boil them all together. However, if you need to add more water to the pot to boil the extra eggs, then it would take longer for the water to boil and so longer to boil the eggs.
If a dozen of eggs were in three separate pots and they had the same amount of water in the pots and boiled at the same time, then it would take ten minutes to boil the three dozen.
If they were boiled a dozen at a time with the same amount of water in the pot each time, them it would take thirty minutes.
If it take ten minutes to boil a dozen of eggs, and they were boiled one after the other (50 seconds per egg), then it would take thirty minutes to boil three dozen eggs.

10/12=x/36
x=time to boil 3 dozen eggs
x=30 minutes

the actual cooking time doesn't change, if you like your eggs boiled at 10 min. then they all should boil for 10 min. not 30 min. as your question is headed for. if you boil eggs 30min. I would think you will have made some golf balls.

It will take slightly more than 10 mins.
if the heat source is the same (even if we assume that the vessel size and amount of water remains same), amount of heat required to heat 30 eggs will be more than heat required for 10 eggs. So, the time required will also increase. Exactly how much will be determined on the size of the heat source.

The first step is:

Boil first the first batch of dozen of eggs. Equals to 10 minutes.

The second step is:

Boil the second batch of dozen of eggs. Equals to 10 minutes.

The third step is:

Boil the third batch of dozen of eggs. Equals to 10 minutes.

If you're too quick to put water and turn the fire on (and careful), well, your preparation time is 33 minutes.

Because, if you prepare each batch a water and turning on the fire, this is estimated equivalent to 1 minute. So,

3 (First Batch)
+10 (First Batch)
+ 3 (Second Batch)
+10 (Second Batch)
+ 3 (Third Batch)
+10 (Third Batch)
___
33!!!

I'm sure you'll get it! -,)

are you boiling them all at the same time? 10 minutes

different times? 30 min.

Well if you were boiling the 3 doezen together it would still take ten minutes.

If we were doing it in lots of three dozen eggs it would take half an hour.

I suck at maths so that's my best answer.
