Felix had a farm an on that farm he had chickens and pigs which had 48 heads and 124 feet all together how many chickens and pigs were there?

Let the number of chickens be x and the number of pigs be y. Each chicken has 1 head and 2 feet, while each pig has 1 head and 4 feet. We can then write the equations x + y = 48 (counting heads) and 2x + 4y = 124 (counting feet). Solving these equations simultaneously gives x = 24 and y = 24, so there were 24 chickens and 24 pigs.
