The equation e = 6 tells you for each box, e, there are 6 eggs. If she bought 4 boxes, you would be multiplying the number of boxes, 4, by e. That means:
4 x e

Now you need to set 4 x e equal to the total number of eggs she has now. Since you know e = 6 eggs, plug in 6 into 4 x e!
4 x e = ?
4 x 6 = 24

That means you complete equation is:
4 x e = 24
