There are 5 chickens in each pen. There are 4 pens in the barn. There are 2 pens outside. How many chickens are there?

6 pens * 5 chickens/ pen = 30 chickens

To find the total number of chickens, we need to calculate the number of chickens in each pen and then add them together.

First, we calculate the number of chickens in the pens inside the barn. There are 5 chickens in each pen, and there are 4 pens in the barn. Therefore, there are 5 x 4 = 20 chickens in the pens inside the barn.

Next, we calculate the number of chickens in the pens outside. There are 5 chickens in each pen, and there are 2 pens outside. Therefore, there are 5 x 2 = 10 chickens in the pens outside.

Finally, we add the number of chickens in the pens inside the barn (20) to the number of chickens in the pens outside (10) to find the total number of chickens. So, there are 20 + 10 = 30 chickens in total.

To determine the number of chickens, we need to calculate the total number of chickens in each pen and then add them together.

We know that there are 5 chickens in each pen, and there are 4 pens in the barn. So, in the barn, there are 5 chickens x 4 pens = 20 chickens.

Additionally, there are 2 pens outside. Since each pen also has 5 chickens, the number of chickens outside is 5 chickens x 2 pens = 10 chickens.

Therefore, the total number of chickens is 20 chickens in the barn + 10 chickens outside = 30 chickens.
