This depends on how "hard" you want to boil the eggs - a barely-set white with a runny yolk takes just a couple of minutes while a fully cooked white and yolk takes 10 minutes.

Incidentially, the number of eggs doesn't matter too much since you need to put the eggs into enough water to have an inch of water over the highest point of the highest egg. The more eggs you want to boil, the more water you have to add. I would suggest making the eggs in 3 batches of 12 - you can easily get 12 eggs in a single layer in most large saucepans and have plenty of room to get enough water over the top.

Is this a trick question? ....If you put them all in the same pan and boil them at the same time then the same time it would take to boil one egg, so the answer is 3 to 4 minutes for soft boiled eggs, 6 to 7 minutes for hard boiled eggs. Refresh the hard boiled eggs in cold water after cooking to stop a black ring forming around the yolk.

it depends. If you cook them all at the same time,it'd beabout8 minutes, so if they're one at a time, it's 8x36= 288 mins!

First entry :Two hours plus 3 hours minus 6.

Second entry : Around 12 minutes at a reasonable tempurature. It also depends whether you want your egg as runny.

Between 3 and 8 minutes depending on how soft or hard you would like the yolk, and providingyou boil them all in the same pan at once.
