Review the “גמרא דף יב: “איתביה יתר על כן (middle of the Amud)  until “אמר רב יהודה” 

The Gemara asks a question from the machlokes Rebbe Yehuda and the Rabanan in regards to two mechitzos on the two sides of a Reshus Harabim. 

What is the question and the answer of the Gemara?

See Rashi 

Questions on Rashi:

How could Rashi say the Rabanan agree to Rebbe Yehuda that only need a lechi or korah on each side? The Gemara on Daf 6a said the rabanan require a tzuras hapesach on one side and a lechi or korah on the other?

If Rebbe Yehuda holds two mechitzos create a Reshus Hayachid where is there a case of a סרטיא or פלטיא that is considered a Reshus Harabim (listed in גמרא שבת דף ו) as their roads had walls on the side of them?

Major Question:

The Gemara seems to say clearly that only three walls are necessary to create a Reshus Hayachid. How does the Rambam who rules that four walls are required learn our gemara?

Learn רבינו חננאל on the side of the Gemara for a different way to explain our gemara.

Major Question on ר”ח and Rambam:

In the answer of the Gemara having three walls and a lechi is considered a Reshus Hayachid.  But according to Rava לחי is a היכר why is this Mavui considered a Reshus Hayachid?
