Zara bought 24 cows, 7 sheep, and some goats. Next week, she will transport all of them to a new farm in 3 equally-sized groups of 48 animals per group. How many goats does she own? Let's answer step by step:
Zara will transport a total of 3 * 48 = 144 animals. The known number of animals is 24 + 7 = 31 cows and sheep. Zara therefore has 144 - 31 = 113 goats. The answer: 113.
