Answer:

79

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that N is the number of cards.

So the first step is N+5, because dan bought 5 new cards.

Next his dog ate half the collection, so the 2nd piece of the problem is [tex]\frac{N+5}{2}[/tex]

The last step is to now make it an equation. Because there are now 46 cards left, [tex]\frac{N+5}{2}[/tex]=42.

Now solve for N which is N+5=84=> N=79
