If 3 hens lay 3 eggs in 3 days how many eggs will 300 hens lay in 300 days
Answers
3 hens lay 3 eggs in 3 days.
So 1 hen lays 1 egg in 3 days. (Not 1 day because, among 3 hens, a total of 3 eggs are laid in 3 days, not each hen lays 3 eggs each. Assume the 3 hens lay 3 eggs at the same time.)
So 300 hens lay 300 eggs in 3 days.
In 3 days, 300 eggs.
In 3 x 100 days, 300 x 100 eggs.
In 300 days, 30000 eggs.
So 30000 is the right answer.

Given:
3 hens lay 3 eggs in 3 days
To find:
The number of eggs 300 hens lay in 300 days
Solution:
The number of days for 1 hen to lay 1 egg = 3 days
The number of days for 300 hens to lay 300 eggs = 3 days
In 3 days, 300 eggs
The number of eggs in 300 days = 300 x 300/3
= 90000/3
= 30000 eggs
Hence, the number of eggs 300 hens lay in 300 days is 30000.
