Need to know freezer size and model.
As an example, small 12V chest freezer ~2 cu.ft, NO INVERTER, can draw 30 AH per 24 hours. Or it can draw 15 AH. Depends on the ambient and how often you open it.
Add 10-15 AH for your other needs. Total - anywhere from 30 to 50 AH a day. More if you need inverter or the freezer is bigger.
200W solar tilted towards the sun and rotated couple times a day will harvest 40-60 AH, depends on location and weather.
