Question

Half of a herd of deer are grazing in the field and three fourths of the remaining are playing nearby. The rest 9 are drinking water from the pond. Find the number of deer in the herd.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Number of deer grazing in field = 1x/2. Number of deer playing nearby = 3/4 of 1x/2 = 3x/8. Hence, the total number right deer in the herd is 72.

Answer 2

Answer:

10.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Grazing deer - 1/2

Playing deer - 3/4

Drinking water - 9

Total deers -> 1/2 + 3/4 +9

-> L.C.M. -> 4

-> 1/2 × 2/2 = 2/4 , 3/4× 1/1 = 3/4 , 9/1 × 4/4 = 36/ 4

- > 2 + 3 + 36 / 4

-> 41 /4

-> 10.25
