Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of deer be x
deer grazing => 12x
Deer playing =>34(12x)
=> 38x
12x+38x+9=x
12x+38x−x=−9
4x+3x−8x8=−9
4x+3x−8x=−72
7x−8x=−72
−x=−72
x=72

Hi friend,
How are you?
Here is your answer:-
Let total no.of deer = x
half of herd =x/2
3/4 of remaining half herd =(x/2)(3/4) =3x/8
remaining deer=9
x=(x/2)+(3x/8)+9
x=(4x+3x+72)/8
8x=7x+72
8x-7x=72
x=72
∴total no.of deers are 72.
I hope this answer may help you.
Thank you,
Good bye and have a nice day.
