    Let the number of animals in each pack be x.

    Total number of animals will be 3x

    after Josiah gave 6 animals to his sister the remaining animals were:

    3x-6=9

    thus sloving for x we have:

    3x-6=9

    add 6 on both sides

    3x-6+6=9+6

    3x=15

    divide both sides by 3

    (3x) / 3=15/3

    x=5

    Answer:

    There were 5 animals in each pack
