Question

In three days, the chickens on Nigel's farm can lay 33 eggs. How many eggs will they lay in 11 days?

Answer 1

Eggs laid by chicken in 11 days = 121 eggs

Explanation:

Eggs laid by the chickens in 3 days = 33

Average rate at which the chickens are laying the eggs =
`(33)/(3)`

= 11 eggs per day

At the same rate number of eggs laid by the chickens in 11 days = Rate × Number of days

= 11 × 11

= 121 eggs

Therefore, eggs laid by chicken in 11 days = 121 eggs
