A family has three adults and children, both girls and boys. They went out for a family trip and prepared 3 dozen boiled eggs for the trip. Every adult got 3 eggs, and the boys each received 1 more egg than each girl since the girls had some snacks. How many boys went on the trip if the number of girls was 7 and each girl received an egg?
The total number of eggs the family had is 3 * 12 = <<3*12=36>>36 eggs
If each adult received 3 eggs, the total number of eggs they got is 3 * 3 = <<3*3=9>>9 eggs.
The children shared 36 - 9 = <<36-9=27>>27 eggs
Since each girl received an egg, the boys shared 27 - 7 = <<27-7=20>>20 eggs
If each boy received 1 egg more than each girl, each received 1+1 = <<1+1=2>>2 eggs
The boys received 20 eggs, and if each got 2 eggs, then 20/2 = <<20/2=10>>10 boys went on the trip
