If a hen and half lays an egg and half in a day and a half how many would he lay in day?
This implies a hen and a half would lay 3 eggs in 3 days. Therefore 3 hens would lays 6 eggs in 3 days. So one hen would lay 2 eggs in 3 days. Or one egg every day and a half.
If a chicken and a half can lay an egg and a half in a day and a half how many hens to lay six eggs in six days?
Since the number of chickens and eggs are the same, you can simplify both to one. Therefore, a chicken can lay an egg every day and a half. 6/1.5=4, therefore it would take four hens.
If it takes a day and one-half for a chicken and one-half to lay and egg and one-half how long does it take a rooster sitting on a doorknob to hatch a hardware store?
The same length of time that it would take 1,000,000 monkeys with typewriters to create the Complete Works of Shakespeare.
If an egg and a half cost a cent and a half how much is a dozen and a half?
The answer is obvious. If the quantity of a is equal to the quantity of b then the answer is 12 and a half cents.
What is the definition of equal ratio?
An equal ratio is a ratio of equals. That's the answer, but it is obviously not clear. Here are some examples that will make it so. One to one. Ten to ten. Three and a half to three and a half. From a mathematical point of view, they're all the same (one to one equals ten to ten), but what's important is that however much of one thing one has, one will have an equal amount of the other if one has an equal ratio of those things. To make a dip for bread to cook up some french toast, use an equal ratio of milk and egg. Crack an egg (or eggs) into a tall glass. Look at the level. Add milk until the level is twice as high. There is a one-to-one ratio of egg to milk.
