Answer 2

Number of birds in the nest will be 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total number f birds are x

Then $\frac{1}{4}\times x=\frac{x}{4}$ birds are at the river bank

And $\frac{1}{5}\times x=\frac{x}{5}$ birds are in the nest

So total number of birds at the river bank and in the nest $=\frac{x}{5}+\frac{x}{4}=\frac{9x}{20}$

So number of birds left $x-\frac{9x}{20}=\frac{11x}{20}$

As in question it is given that number of birds left are 22

So $\frac{11x}{20}=22$

x = 40

So number of birds in the nest $=\frac{1}{5}\times 40=8$
