Answer:

12 cows - 48 legs

4 ducks- 8 legs

- there are many different numbers you can do but if you want to change the numbers and have more ducks then: for every one cow you take away two more ducks.

Step-by-step explanation:

22 total animals

56 total legs

ducks have 2 legs

cows have 4 legs

12 times 4 = 48 ( 12 cows with 4 legs each cow =  48 legs)

4 times 2 = 8 ( 4 ducks with 2 legs each duck = 8 legs)

DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

I think you meant 40% off. If so...

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to turn 40 into a decimal - .40.

Then you multiply 30*.40 and get 12.

Subtract 12 from 30 since you are saving 12 dollars.

This means you spend $18 and saved $12.

So, your final answer would be $12.

Hope this helps :)

timofeeve [1]

Step-by-step explanation:

4 +  \frac{2}{3}  =  \frac{3 \times 4 + 2}{3}  =  \frac{14}{3}  = 4 \frac{2}{3}

\frac{67}{71}  \times  \frac{381}{399}  =  \frac{67 \times 381}{71 \times 399}  =  \frac{25527}{28329}  =  \frac{8509}{9443}

\frac{684}{795}  \div  \frac{24}{37}  =  \frac{684}{795}  \times  \frac{37}{24}  =  \frac{25308}{19080}  = 1.33
