Question

There are cows and turkey at farm, 82 heads and 264 legs in all. There is no need to explain that a cow has four legs, while turkey has two legs. How many cows and turkeys are at the farm?

Answer 1

4C + 2T = 264

C+ T = 82

2C + 2T = 164

subtract from 1st equation to get

2C =100

C = 50 cows

T= 82-50 = 32 turkeys
