Question

ramesh has same pigeons and goats. if the number of animals is 59. and the number of their legs is 190.then the number of goats are​

Answer 1

Answer:

36

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that total no. of animals is 59

so, let no. of goats = x

let the no. of pigeons =y

so, x+y=59 -------------------------i

no. of legs for every goat =4

so, total no. of goat legs = 4x

no. of legs for every pigeon = 2

so, total no. of pigeon legs = 2y

now, total no. of legs = 4x +2y

= 190

4x+2y =190 --------------------------ii

from i,

y= 59-x

putting value in ii, we get

4x + 2(59-x) = 190

on solving we get

4x + 118 - 2x = 190

2x + 118 = 190

2x = 190 - 118

2x =72

x = 72/2

x(no. of goats) = 36

Answer 2

Let the number of goats be x

            number of pigeons be y

Number of legs for 1 goat = 4

Number of legs for x goat = 4x

Number of legs for 1 pigeon = 2

Number of legs for x pigeon = 2y

Hence, by the given conditions

x + y = 59        ----------(1)

4x + 2y = 190  ---------(2)

(1)*2 => 2x + 2y = 118 -------(3)

(2)-(3) => 4x + 2y - 2x - 2y = 190-118

                2x = 72

                   x = 36

y = 59 - 36 = 23

Therefore,

the total number of goats = 36 and

      total number of pigeons = 23
