If all were ducks there would be ony 36 legs. The extra 14 legs must represent 7 horses, which with 11 ducks would have 7 x 4 + 11 x 2 ie 28 + 22 ie 50 legs as stated.

Farmer hoggett has only ducks and pigs on his farm He cant remember how many of each he has but he really doesn't need to remember He does know that he was 22 animals A total of 56 legs..?
