Answer: 110 horses

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

An average adult horse needs two fifth bale of hay

The farm has 44 bales of hay

Suppose n horses can be fed by the available bales of hay

So, we can write

$\Rightarrow n\times \dfrac{2}{5}=44\\\\\Rightarrow n=\dfrac{44\times 5}{2}=110\ \text{horses}$
