Answer 2

Solution:

Let's solve the problem step by step.

1. Total number of sheep: - The total number of sheep owned by the two men is 40. - Let's denote the number of sheep owned by the first man as x and the number of sheep owned by the second man as (x - 6).

2. Equation: - We can set up the equation: x + (x - 6) = 40.

3. Solving for x: - Solving the equation, we get: 2x - 6 = 40. - Adding 6 to both sides: 2x = 46. - Dividing by 2: x = 23.

4. Calculating the number of sheep for each man: - The first man has 23 sheep. - The second man has (23 - 6) = 17 sheep.

Therefore, the first man has 23 sheep, and the second man has 17 sheep.

Answer:

The first man has 23 sheep, and the second man has 17 sheep.
