Reveal Answer
Answer - If 73 hens lay 73 dozen eggs in 73 days than 73 hens lay 1 dozen in 1 day. Further, if 37 hens eat 37 quarts of corn in 37 days than 37 hens eat 1 quart in 1 day. So to get a dozen eggs you must feed 73 hens for 1 day. To get that you divide the hens needed (73) by hens fed by 1 quart of corn (37) which gives you the answer of a fraction less than 2 quarts.Doesn't match Missing info Like question
