Answer:
5 chickens
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's set chickens and pigs with variables "c" and "p" respectively.
We know there a 16 animals in all, so there are:
c+p=16
We know there are 54 legs and chickens have 2 legs and pigs have 4 legs each:
2c+4p=54
Now we have our system of equations:
c+p=16
2c+4p=54
We are trying to find the number of chickens, so we write the first equation in respect to c.
p=16-c
Substituting the first derived equation to equation two:
2c+64-4c=54
Simplifying:
64-2c=54
2c=10
c=5
So there are 5 chickens.
