The best way to answer this question is to set up the first sentence as a ratio of large bandages to total bandages. You would write 5 large bandages to 7 total bandages to 7 total bandages. Then you would make this equivalent to x number of large bandages to 60 total. It would look like this 5:7 = x:60. You could use cross products to multiply 60 by 5 to get 300. 7 times x also should equal 300. Unfortunately, this example will not leave us with a whole number of bandages, but 300/7 is a repeating decimal or a mixed number (42 6/7 large bandages).

Remark
Let the pigs = p
Let the chickens = c
Givens
30 heads is another way of saying that there were 30 creatures in the barnyard. In addition each chicken has 2 legs and each pig has 4
c + p = 30
2C + 4P = 100 (2) Divide (2) by 2
C + 2P = 50 (3) Subtract (1) from (3)
<u>C + P = 30</u>
P = 20
So there were 20 pigs.
