The word “wrong” 😛

Answer : 2 eggs

Using logic and assuming that the initial premise (first statement) is true, we have:

Given: 1.5 days –> 1.5 peacock, 1.5 eggs

Double time ==> double eggs for same number of peacocks
3 days –> 1.5 peacock, 3 eggs

2/3 number of peacocks ==> 2/3 eggs for same time
3 days –> 1 peacock, 2 eggs

Here I’m assuming that same date also means same year. It could be that they died in different geographic locations, (ex: India and USA). So even if date and time are same, the timezone would be different (~9:30 hrs in this case), which makes this scenario possible.
