#23 - Puzzle Of Maths

In a stable there are men and horses. In all, there are 22 heads and 72 feet. How many men and how many horses are in the stable

Puzzle Of Maths

14 horses and 8 men.

If, A --> men and B --> horses

So, A + B = 22 and 2A + 4B = 72
2 (22 - B) + 4 B = 72
44 - 2 B + 4 B = 72
44 + 2 B = 72
2 B = 72 - 44 = 28
B = 14 (horses)


So, there are in the stable 8 men and 14 horses.
