उत्तर
Let the number of sheep with Haraba at first be x.
According to the given condition,
Number of sheep with Haraba at first − Number of sheep sold in the market = Number of sheep left with Haraba
∴ x − 34 = 176
⇒ x − 34 + 34 = 176 + 34 (Add 34 to both sides)
⇒ x + 0 = 210
⇒ x = 210
Thus, there were 210 sheep with Haraba at first.
