Answer 1

Given : Haraba sell 34 sheep; he still has 176
sheep

To find : how many sheep's he have first

Let's Haraba have x sheep's first
after selling 34 he has 176 sheep

x÷176 + 34
means : x upon 176 plus 34
x÷176 +34
x= 176 + 34
x= 210

Haraba has 210 sheep first .

Answer 2

Answer:

210

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Haraba owns some sheep. After selling 34 of them in the market, he still has 176 sheep. How many sheep did Haraba have at first?

Write the given information as an equation and find its solution.

So Haraba has some sheep with him.

Let the sheep be x

he sells 34 sheep in the market. So it will be subtraction, We can write it as

x - 34

But he still has 176 sheep remaining. So we can write the equation as

                        x - 34 = 176

Solving this we get

                     x = 176 + 34

                    x = 210

So Haraba had 210 sheep in the beginning.
