Question 1038432: There were 4 legged goats and 3 legged birds in a field . Altogether there were 28 legs and 9 heads. How many birds are in the field. Answer by Edwin McCravy(20055) (Show Source):
None, because there is no such thing as a 3-legged bird. :)
Seriously though, if we were on a planet where there were
3-legged birds, then
Solve that by substitution.
