is six inches and two earthworms is twelve inches (one foot). So that means that 14 earthworms is 7 feet. Since 7 feet is not long enough, we doubled the simple equation of 7 feet which equals 14 feet. We also doubled 14 earthworms which equals 28 earthworms. Then we multiplide 28 earthworms by 4 which equals 112 earthworms. So in other words one chick would eat 28 earthworms a day. And four chicks would demand 112 earthworms a day.
