If 2 chickens can lay a total of 2 eggs in 2 days.how many eggs can 4 chickens lay in 4 days?
2 chickens laying 2 eggs in 2 days means that each chicken lays an egg every other day. 4 chickens laying an egg every other day would lay 8 eggs in 4 days.
If a chicken and a half can lay an egg and a half how many eggs can three chickens lay in three days?
Well that all depends on how many eggs that chicken can lay in a day. There isn't enough information.
How many eggs do 6 chickens lay in 3 weeks?
First, find the eggs per day rate:1.5c( chicken) produce 1.5e (eggs) in 1.5d (days)1.5e ---------------- 2/3 eggs Per chicken per day 1.5c * 1.5dTake a look at the question now: 6 chicken in 3 weeks (21 days)2/3 * 6c * 21d 84 eggs
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 a hen and a half lay an egg and a half in a day and a half how many eggs can one hen lay in three days?
The answer is 2 eggs. Solution #1: Let's get some whole numbers. If we double the number of chickens, we get twice the production. So, 3 hens lay 3 eggs in 1.5 days. If we double the days, we double the production again. So, 3 hens lay 6 eggs in 3 days. Now, divide by 3 to get one hen's production: 2 eggs. Solution #2: To get eggs per hen per day: 1.5 eggs / 1.5 hens / 1.5 days. 1.5 / 1.5 = 1; 1 / 1.5 = 2/3. Now, multiply by 3 days: 2/3 x 3 = 2 eggs.
