    238

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Start with Raven's ants since hers is the one that everyone else's is based off of.

    Raven = 208

    Haley has half of that plus 76, so

    Haley = (208/2) + 76

    Haley = 180

    If Haley's farm doubles in population, she would have 360 ants. That number is equal to Nate's number + 122. We have an equation of sorts there to solve for Nate's ants:

    180 (2) = N + 122 so

    360 = N + 122 and

    N = 238

    Nate has 238 ants in his farm.
