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:
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
