Answer:
Let goats be G
Let chickens be C
A.T.Q
G+C=20 (equation 1)
As we know goats have 4 Legs and chickens have 2 Legs
A.T.Q
Legs of G+legs of C=76
So we can write it as
G*4+C*2=76 (equation 2)
Now,
By putting the values of equation 1 in equation 2
G+C=20
We can also say
C=20-G
4*G+2*C=76
4G+2(20-G)=76
4G+40–2G=76
4G-2G=76–40
2G=36
G=36/2
G=18
From equation 1
G+C=20
18+C=20
C=20–18
C=2
Hence, number of goats are 18 and number of chickens are 2
