Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, the no. of two legged pets = x

Therefore, According to ques.

No. of four legged pets= 3x + 2

Total no. of pets = 358

Therefore, Two legged...+ Four legged...= 358

x + 3x + 2 = 358

4x + 2 = 358

4x = 358 - 2

4x = 356

x = 356 ÷ 4

x = 89

Hence, no. of two legged dogs = x = 89

&. no. of four legged dogs = 3x + 2

= 3×89 + 2

= 267 + 2

= 269
