There are a total of 27 Chickens and Rabbits on a farm. Given that the total number of legs on the farm is 84, find the number of Rabbits
Sorry. Please check the correct answer below.
Method 1: Method of Assumption
Assume all were Chickens, there would be only
\begin{array}{rcl}
27\times2=54
\end{array}
legs.
However, there are actually 84 legs.
Therefore, there are
\begin{array}{rcl}
84-54=30
\end{array}
extra legs.
If we replace one Chicken by one Rabbit, we will have
\begin{array}{rcl}
4-2=2
\end{array}
more legs.
Therefore, the number of Rabbits is
\begin{array}{rcl}
30\div2=15.

There are a total of 119 Ducks and Donkeys on a farm. Given that the total number of legs on the farm is 272, find the number of Donkeys
Sorry. Please check the correct answer below.
Method 1: Method of Assumption
Assume all were Ducks, there would be only
\begin{array}{rcl}
119\times2=238
\end{array}
legs.
However, there are actually 272 legs.
Therefore, there are
\begin{array}{rcl}
272-238=34
\end{array}
extra legs.
If we replace one Duck by one Donkey, we will have
\begin{array}{rcl}
4-2=2
\end{array}
more legs.
Therefore, the number of Donkeys is
\begin{array}{rcl}
34\div2=17.
\end{array}
The number of Ducks is
\begin{array}{rcl}
119-17=102.
\end{array}Method 2: Method of Assumption
Assume all were Donkeys, there would be only
\begin{array}{rcl}
119\times4=476
\end{array}
legs.
However, there are actually only 272 legs.
Therefore, there are a shortage of
\begin{array}{rcl}
476-272=204
\end{array}
legs.
If we replace one Donkey by one Duck, we will have
