Question

one upon three of the Goats are grazing in the field and one upon four are in their house the remaining 5 are playing .find the total number of goats

Answer 1

Let the total goats be x

Goats grazing = x/3

Goats in house = x/4

Remaining goats = 5

So, x - x/3 - x/4 = 5

(12x - 4x - 3x) / 12 = 5

5x = 60

x = 12

Total number of goats were 12.
