A chicken coop holds a total of 10 hens or 20 chicks. If 2/5 of the hen and a full coop are removed how many new chicks could fit in the chicken coop?

There are 10 hens in the coop, so 2/5 of 10 is 4 hens. If 4 hens are removed, then there are 6 hens left in the coop.

If a full coop is removed (which is 10 hens or 20 chicks), then there will be space for 20 new chicks to fit in the chicken coop.
