On a farm there are three-legged-cows and horses There are total of 113 heads and 353 legs How many three-legged-cows are on the farm?
These are easier than they look: Imagine all the animals were horses which would mean there were 4 x 113 = 452 legs. The actual number of legs is 353 so there is a shortage of 99 legs, ie there are 99 3-legged cows (and 14 horses).
Check: Does 3 x 99 and 4 x 14 add up to 353? 3 x 99 = 297, 4 x 14 = 56, 297 + 56 = 353. Job done!
