Question

In a zoo there are rabbits and pigeons. If heads are counted , there are 340 heads and if legs are counted there are 1060 legs.How many pigeons are there?

Answer 1

I think that if we subtract
$1060 - 340 = 720$
Then we get our answer

Answer 2

Answer:

150

step by step explain

Suppose there are all the pigeons then total no of heads are 340 and total no of legs are 680.

Now, since 380 (1060-680) legs are extra, it means there will be 190 (380/2) rabbits.As we know a rabbit has two extra legs than that of a pigeon.

Therefore, number of rabbits =190

and number of pigeons = 340- 190 = 150
