Question

Situation One

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Total no. of horses and chicken=24

C+H=24

Total no. horses be =24-C

Total no. legs=66

---66=4(24-C)+2C { As horses have 4 legs and chicken has 2 legs}

66=96-4c+2c

66-96=-2c

-30=-2C

Chicken=15

Therefore no. horses=24-C

=24-15

=9horses

There fore no. of chicken legs=15×2 = 30 legs

Therefore no. of horse legs=9×4=36 legs
