SOLUTION:
The answer is 60 eggs.
A chicken and a half lays an egg and a half in a day and a half,
Thus, 1.5 chickens lay 1.5 eggs in 1.5 days.
Scaling the number of chickens by two, we get that 3 chickens lay 3 eggs in 1.5 days.
Multiplying days with 2 will give us 3 chickens lay 3*2=6 eggs in 1.5*2=3 days
Multiplying the number of days by 10, we get that 3 chickens lay 60 eggs in 30 days.
