Answer 2

28 eggs

Explanation:

Total no of eggs laid by a turtle = 70

Hatched eggs fraction
`=(9)/(15)`

We need to find the eggs that did not hatch.

Hatched eggs,

`=70* (9)/(15)\\\\=42`

Not hatched eggs = total eggs - hatched eggs

Not hatched eggs = 70 - 42

= 28

Hence, 28 eggs did not hatched.
