chickens to eggs
4 12
8 □
30
20

Explanation:

Step1: Find the unit ratio

First, determine how many eggs per chicken.
$\frac{12}{4} = 3$ eggs per chicken

Step2: Calculate eggs for 8 chickens

Multiply number of chickens by 3.
$8 \times 3 = 24$

Step3: Calculate chickens for 30 eggs

Divide total eggs by 3.
$\frac{30}{3} = 10$ chickens

Step4: Calculate eggs for 20 chickens

Multiply number of chickens by 3.
$20 \times 3 = 60$

Answer:

• For 8 chickens: 24 eggs
• For 30 eggs: 10 chickens
• For 20 chickens: 60 eggs

Completed table values (in order of missing cells): 24, 10, 60
