Explanation:

Step1: Calculate Jase's egg - total

Multiply number of chickens by eggs per chicken. $9\times3 = 27$

Step2: Compare with Edna's total

Compare Jase's 27 eggs with Edna's 23 eggs. $27>23$

Step3: Calculate the difference

Subtract Edna's total from Jase's. $27 - 23=4$

Answer:

Jase's chickens laid more eggs. They laid 4 more eggs than Edna's chickens.
