Question

there are rabbits and pigeons the number of heads are 200 and number of legs are 580 then find the number of pigeon​

Answer 1

Explanation:

let the number of rabbits be x

no. of pigeons=y

total number of heads=200

therefore, x+y=200 . . . . . . . ( 1 )

rabbits have 4feet and pigeons have 2

therefore, 4x+2y=580 . . . . . . . ( 2 )

multiplying ( 1 ) with 2, we get

2x +2y= 400

subtracting (1) from (2), we get

2x=180

x=90

substituting x in the equations, we get,

y= 200-90

=110

here's your answer

hope it helps :)
