The total number of Catfishes at Howard lake were 16452.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Total number of fishes = 72,190

Total number of Trout fishes = 55,738

We have to find the number of Catfishes at Howard Lake.

Solution,

Let total number of Catfishes be 'c'.

Total number of fishes is the sum of number of Trout fishes and total number of Catfishes.

So, we can say that;

Total number of fishes = Total number of Trout fishes + Total number of Catfishes

On substituting the values, we get;

On subtracting both side by '55738' using subtraction property of equality, we get;

Hence The total number of Catfishes at Howard lake were 16452.
