Answer:

  60 chickens

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume the 140 refers to the number animals (heads, noses, bodies, whatever). If all of those were chickens, there would be 280 legs. There are 160 legs more than that.

Since each pig that replaces a chicken adds 2 legs, there must be 160/2 = 80 pigs. That leaves 140 -80 = 60 chickens.

Greater than symbol is ">"
But since he mentioned "NO greater than" then it's the opposite of greater than, which means "K" is less than "9"
