Q: Carla had 400 chickens on her chicken farm. However, 40% of the chicken died due to a certain disease. How many chickens were there if she bought ten times as many chickens as the number that died due to disease?
A:
If Carla had 400 chickens on her chicken farm, the number that died is 40 / 100 * 400 = 160. Carla remained with 400 - 160 = 240 chickens. Carla then bought 10 * 160 = 1600 new chickens. The total number of chicken that Carla had now is 1600 + 240 = 1840. The answer is 1840.
