assistant
How many roosters does Mrs. Fredrickson have? ** Mrs. Fredrickson has 80 x 1/4 = <<80*1/4=20>>20 roosters.
How many hens does Mrs. Fredricksons have? ** So he has 80 - 20 = <<80-20=60>>60 hens.
How many hens lay eggs? ** Only 60 x 3/4 = <<60*3/4=45>>45 of the hens lay eggs.
How many hens do not lay eggs? ** Thus, 60 - 45 = <<60-45=15>>15 hens do not lay eggs.
How many chickens does Mr. Fredrickson have that do not lay eggs? ** Therefore, Mr. Fredrickson has a total of 15 hens + 20 roosters = <<15+20=35>>35 chickens that do not lay eggs.
