Answer: There are 11 fish she have.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of birds = 2

Number of hamsters = 5

Let the number of fish be 'x'.

According to question, she has 6 fewer hamsters than fish.

So, our equation becomes

[tex]f-h=6\\\\f-5=6\\\\f=6+5\\\\f=11[/tex]

Hence, there are 11 fish she have.
