Problem
Prit'ha's son seized a number of arrows to kill Carna, he used half for his defense; four times the square root against horses,
six arrows pierced Carna’s coachdriver and broke his banner and bow and one crossed his head.
How many arrows had Prit’ha’s son?
This is a simple oriental problem, but still, I couldn’t solve it, because I don’t know how to interpret the last line: “and one crossed his head.”
