How many pumpkins do I have ? If I give half of my pumpkins to my friend Tom and then give half of what is left to my friend Zara , I will have 6 left.

What this is essentially asking is six is half of a number which is half of a number, or six times two times two.

\(6*2*2 \\ \\ 12*2 \\ \\ 24\)

You have 24 pumpkins.

You have 24 to start with. You give 12 to Tom and you have 12 left. you then give 6 of those 12 (or half) to Zara leaving with you 6.
