Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of roses Mr Charles had cut from his garden.

After giving 10 roses to his neighbour, he has (x - 10) roses.

After giving half of the remaining roses to his niece, he has (x - 10)/2 roses left.

We are given that (x - 10)/2 = 14.

=> x - 10 = 28, x = 38.

Hence Mr Charles had cut 38 roses.
