Answer:
Say you have to find two consecutive integers whose sum is 89. How do you go about this problem? You first take a variable, say x, the value of which is unknown to you. Next, you are supposed to take another number. Since the problem requires you to use two consecutive integers, the integer next to x will be (x + 1). Now as per the problem, the sum of x and (x+1) is 89. We represent this in the form of an equation: x + (x + 1) = 89. Solving this equation we get x as 44 and the next integer (x + 1) as 45, the sum of which is 89.
Let the number of cow be X
Therefore no of sheep = X+8
Since the no. Of cow is half then sheep Therefore no. COW=(8+X)/2
ATQ
(8+X)/2 =
x
8+X=2x
2x-x =8
X=8
Therefore no.of cow =x =8
Therefore no. Of sheep =(X+8)
=(8+8)
=16
Total no. Of animals = 16+8
