Answer 2

Answer:

54

Step-by-step explanation:

in total there are 92 heads

we know that parrot has two legs and tiger will have 4 legs

let parrot be p and tiger t

2p+4t= 260 .....eq1

no of heads

p+t= 92 ...eq2. ( parrot and tiger will have one head)

multiply eq2 with 4

4p+4t= 368

2p+4t=260

by subtracting above equations we get

2p=108

p= 54
