If a hen and a half, lays an egg and a half, in a day in a half, how many eggs will six hens lay i seven days? <-- realize the relationship between the three is days*hens*base-eggrate=eggs, simply multiply the three values to get the number of eggs

we have 3/2 hens
3/2 eggs
3/2days
this gives us 3/2 eggs in a day

to get the value for 6 days we multiply
3/2*6=9 eggs
