Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of attires Clara has initially = x

lends half her collection of formal attires to her sister

Attires remaining after lending = Number of attires Clara has initially - attires she lent her sister

= x - 1/2x

= 1/2x

Clara then buys four more attires

= 1/2x + 4

If she has 12 attires now

12 = 1/2x + 4

12 - 4 = 1/2x

8 = 1/2x

x = 8 ÷ 1/2

= 8 × 2/1

= 16

x = 16

Number of attires Clara has initially = x = 16
