Chickens and rabbits

In the yard were chickens and rabbits. Together they had 18 heads and 56 legs. How many chickens and how many rabbits were in the yard?

Correct answer:

chickens: 8

rabbits: 10

Explanation:

a+b=18

2a+4b=56

a=8

b=10

a+b = 18

2•a+4•b=56

a+b = 18

2a+4b = 56

a = 8

b = 10
