13 pigs and 1 duck.
If all were horses there would be 428 legs. The shortfall of 36 legs represents 18 chickens so there are 89 horses.

the answer is ..................8
12
Let x = ducks and y = pigs x (ducks) + y (pigs) = 22 (total animals) 2x (legs of ducks) + 4y (legs of pigs) = 56 (total legs) Multiply the first part (the total animals) by two 2x + 2y = 44 then subtract the two problems 2y = 12 then y = 6 go back to the original x + 6 = 22 then x = 16 16 ducks (32 legs) + 6 pigs (24 legs) = 22 animals (56 legs)

The answer is 20 if you add all the legs up. 2 ducks = 4 legs 2 dogs = 8 legs 2 cats = 8 legs 4+8+8=20
2 ducks=4 legs 2 dogs=8 legs 2 cats=8 legs 8+8+4=18(true)
