Trincent, you need to show anon how to do it - answers only usually have no value.

 

26+18=44

100%-44%=56%

So he will have 56% left

56/100*836=

 

$${\frac{{\mathtt{56}}}{{\mathtt{100}}}}{\mathtt{\,\times\,}}{\mathtt{836}} = {\mathtt{468.16}}$$

so he has 468 and a bit iguanas left.  I wonder which bit it was?  Poor iguana
