Let  g= geese

b = buffalo

geese have 2 legs and buffalo have 4 legs

g+b = 15   the total number of animals

2g +4b = 56   the total number of legs

Multiply the first equation by -2

-2g -2b = -30

Add the second equation to eliminate g

-2g -2b = -30

2g +4b = 56

--------------------

    2b = 26

Divide by 2

2b/2 = 26/2

 b = 13

There are 13 buffalo

g+b = 15

g+13 = 15

g =2

There are 2 geese and 13 buffalo

7 workers can make 210 pairs of cup in 6 days. How many workers are required to make 450 pairs of cup in 10 days?
blagie [28]
9 workers
7 workers can make 210 pairs of cup in 6 days, so:
1 worker can make 30 pairs of cup in 6 days, so:
1 worker can make 5 pairs of cup in 1 day.
Using this info, because
the workers need to make 450 pairs of cup in 10 days,
they need to make 45 pairs of cup in 1 day,
each worker can make 5 pairs of cup in 1 day, 

so 45/5 = 9 workers
voila!
