There are deer and peacocks in a zoo. By counting heads they are 80. The number of their legs is 200. How many peacocks are there ?

  • 120
  • 230
  • 350
  • 460
Answer:- 1
Explanation:-

Solution:
Let x and y be the number of deer and peacocks in the zoo respectively. Then,
x + y = 80 ...(i) and
4x + 2y = 200 or 2x + y = 100 ...(ii)
Solving (i) and (ii), we get) x = 20, y = 60.
