A person have some hens and some cows. Number of head is 38 and number of legs 100 then how many cows and hens.
\n" ); document.write( "=======
\n" ); document.write( "Heads Equation:: h + c = 38
\n" ); document.write( "Legs Equation:: 2h +4c = 100
\n" ); document.write( "-------
\n" ); document.write( "Modify for elimination:
\n" ); document.write( "h + c = 38
\n" ); document.write( "h + 2c = 50
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "Subtract and solve for \"c\"::
\n" ); document.write( "c = 12 (# of cows)
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "h = 38-12 = 26 (# of hens)
\n" ); document.write( "--------------
