How do you take receipe for a cake that serves 8 and make it serve 80?

Normally you'd scale the recipe up to get the serving size you want. To use your example; the recipe serves 8 but you want it to serve 80 so since 80/8=10 you multiply all your ingredients by 10. So 2 eggs becomes 20 eggs, 6 cups of flour becomes 60 cups of flour... you see the trend? This method usually work best with small multiplying numbers to increase how much the recipe will yield. (Like increasing by two or three)
To try and scale up by this large might not produce very good results and I'm not sure that you'll even have a big enough bowl or pan to make this. If you do have a large enough pan or oven to make this large a cake you'll have to make sure that the batter is the right consistency you may need to add more flour or another ingredient. Be prepared for the cake to not come out different from a larger yield batch than normal.
It'll be easier if you just make 10 cakes. You can either have 10 cakes you cut into 8 pieces or you can take all 10 cakes (make sure you use a rectangle pan if you do this) and put them side by side and frost them together. It'll give the illusion that it's one big cake and you don't need industrial equipment, just a large tray to serve it on.

A recipe calls for 1 cup of cake mix and four eggs the recipe serves 6 people. How many eggs are needed enough to serve 15 people?
Well you have to keep in mind that if you increase the egg amount, you also have to increase the cake mix amount as well. Baking requires precise measurement unfortunately. So 1st thing you would have to do is double your recipe so that it serves 12 people. That would make it 2cups of cake mix and 8 eggs. But you want to make 15 which means you need half of the recipe so that it serves 3 and not 6. That would make you double batch of 12 to 15 servings. So you would need another 1/2 cup of cake mix and 2 more eggs, so your total would be: 2 &1/2 cup cake mix and 10 eggs.....****remember you can't increase one and not the other. That won't work in baking.
