Answer:
Number of cows is 23
Number of chickens is 46
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's assume
number of cows =x
we are given
Mr.Yan has almost as twice as many chickens and cows
so,
Number of chickens =2x
We know that
Number of legs in a cow =4
Number of legs in a chicken =2
now, we can set up equation
[tex]4\times x+2\times 2x=184[/tex]
[tex]4x+4x=184[/tex]
[tex]8x=184[/tex]
[tex]x=23[/tex]
So,
Number of cows =23
Number of chickens is
[tex]=2\times 23=46[/tex]
