Step-by-step explanation:

Homer's The Odyssey tells the journey of Odysseus and his men on their return to Ithaca after the Trojan War. The plot revolves around the numerous encounters they had with the gods and monsters.

The given excerpt is from Book XVI after Telemachus and Odysseus met after his return to Ithaca but not in their home. Odysseus asks his son to tell him the number of suitors who were in their home so that he will know how to act further. This predicts that he will team up with his son Telemachus and fight with the suitors.
