After collecting eggs from his chickens, Dale puts the eggs into cartons to sell. Dale fills 15 cartons and has 7 eggs left over. Each carton holds 12 eggs. How many eggs did Dale collect?

15 * 12 = 180 eggs
He still had 7 left over, so total number of eggs that Dale collected is:
180 + 7 = 187 eggs
