Question

A small puzzle,friends.There are some goats and hens in a room.The total number of their heads is 250 and the total number of their legs is 980.Then how many goats and how many hens are there!​

Answer 1

Answer:

240 goats, 10 hens

Step-by-step explanation:

Let there be x goats and y hens

Each animal has 1 head, so

x + y = 250

A goat has 4 legs and a hen has 2 legs, so

4x + 2y = 980

2x + 2x + 2y = 980

2x + 2(x+y) = 980

2x + 2(250) = 980

2x = 480

x = 240

240 + y =250

y = 10

Answer 2

Answer:

Interesting Puzzle :D

It was fun to solve

Step-by-step explanation:

As per fact that hens and goats each have one head and 2 legs and 4 legs respectively

let no of hen =x, no of goats =y

x + y = 250

2x+4y= 980

Hens = 250/2

= 125

Goats = 980/4

= 245

So there are 125 Hens and 245 Goats
