Learning Mathematics - VIII 19, 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:

Hence, the number of deer playing nearby = 34×X2=3X8 (As, three fourth of the remaining deer are playing nearby.) As the rest 9 is drinking water from the pond, it is the one-fourth of the half of the herd of deer. Hence, the number of deer in the herd is 72.
