Answer:

Anu has 8 rabbits, 1 horse, and 24 hamsters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's suppose the number of rabbits, horses, and hamsters are x, y, and z respectively.

Then we know x + y + z = 33. -(i)

She has 7 more rabbits than horses, so we can form the equation x = y + 7. -(ii)

She also has 3 times as many hamsters as rabbits, so we can form the equation 3x = z. -(iii)

Now let's substitute the value of x in equation (i).

y + 7 + y + z = 33.

We know z = 3x and x = y + 7, so we get

y + 7 + y + 3(y + 7) = 33.

2y+7+3y+21=33.

5y+28=33.

5y = 33-28

y=1.

Now we can put y = 1 and z = 3x in equation(i).

x+1+3x=33

4x=33-1

4x=32

x=8

Now we can put both values of x and y in equation (i).

8+1+z=33

z=33-9

z=24

So, Anu has 8 rabbits, 1 horse, and 24 hamsters.
