    14

    Step-by-step explanation:

    172/6 = 28 with four as a remainder. if each group had 28 nuts and if the crow stole half of one of them, 28/2 is the answer which is 14.

    steps:

    1. 172/6 = 28.66 repeating.

    2. 26.66 is also 28 and 4 remainder

    3. 28/2 = 14

    14 is the answer
