So i found the first stronghold on minecraft. I found the first stronghold using eye of ender. I went through the stronghold and took the contents of the chest. I also fixed the portal to the end went to the end and then went back to spawn. How can i find the other 2 strongholds using the eye of ender?

The eye of ender locks on to whatever stronghold you're nearest to when you throw your first one. Therefore, the only way to find multiple strongholds is to get lucky while mining or use a chunk search program. Search for bookcases, and since stronghold libraries are the only places where bookcases naturally occur, this will allow you to locate all three strongholds. This is cheating though, so mining for ages is the only legitimate way to find all of them.

Try going to the 0,0 coords and heading in the oposite way as the stronghold you already found.The eyes of ender will take you to the nearest stronghold.The third one should be a little more tricky since you will have to go away from two strongholds so be sure to go away from BOTH strongholds you already know.

You could try downloading and using AMIDST, as it finds all three strongholds along with villages, witch huts, temples, slime chunks, your spawnpoint and nether fortresses. I always use it.

The 3 central strongholds are quite precisely laid out 120 degrees from each other on rays from [0,0], within the allowed distance (1,408-2,688 blocks of the world origin).

The lighter-blue areas on the green "rays" are the two areas where the two remaining strongholds can be found.
So using a little trigonometry, arithmetics, or even just the in-game compass, you'll be able to determine the fairly narrow "strips" of land where they can possibly be quite accurately. Using eyes of ender to triangulate the exact position at that stage is fairly easy.
