Answer: 1 day

Step-by-step explanation: Since one hen and a half plus one hen and a half is equal to 3 hens. And also one egg and a half plus one egg and a half equal to 3 eggs therefore also the time needed for three hens will be 2 times the time needed by one hen and a half

Answer:

3 chickens need 1 day to lay 3 eggs, because in 1.5 days 1 chicken lays 1.5 eggs

-> 1 day 1 chicken lays 1 egg so 3 chickens need 1 day to lay 3 eggs

study well !
