Answer:

14 cows

46 turkeys

Explanation:

If all the animals were turkeys, there would be 120 legs. There are 28 more than that. Replacing a turkey with a cow adds 2 legs, so there must be 14 such replacements.

There are 14 cows and 46 turkeys.

_____

Check

14×4 + 46×2 = 56 + 92 = 148 . . . . legs

14 + 46 = 60 . . . . . . heads
