Lizzy: The Grey's bought several chickens at a sale. John took 5 more of the chickens than Mary took. Ray took 6 chickens less than Mary. If Ray took 10 chickens, how many more chickens did John take than Ray?.

Mary took 10 + 6 = 16 chickens. John took 16 + 5 = 21 chickens. John took 21 - 10 = 11 more chickens than Ray. Final answer: 11.
