There are 28 brown ducks swimming in a pond. Twice as many white ducks flew in and landed in the pond. Then half of the ducks flew away. How many ducks remained in the pond?

Answer:

42 ducks remain in the pond

Explanation:

First, find the number of white ducks

28*2=56

Add them to the brown ducks

56+28= 84

Then divide by 2 because half flew away

84/2=42

So 42 ducks remain in the pond. Hope this helps :)
