if four hens lay 9 eggs in 7 days, how many days will it take four dozen hens to lay 27 dozen eggs?
\n" ); document.write( "------
\n" ); document.write( "# of days is directly lated to # of eggs and indirectly related to # of hens.
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "d = k*e/h
\n" ); document.write( "--------------
\n" ); document.write( "Solve for \"k\" using \"four hens lay 9 eggs in 7 days\"
\n" ); document.write( "7 = k*9/4
\n" ); document.write( "k = 28/9
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "d = (28/9)e/h
\n" ); document.write( "-------
\n" ); document.write( "Solve \"how many days will it take four dozen hens to lay 27 dozen eggs?\".
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "d = (28/9)27/48
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "d = (7/12)*3
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "# of days = 7/4 = 1 3/4
