Farmer Green sent his two children out to count the hens and sheep. His daughter counted 40 hens, and his son counted 100 legs. How many of each animal is on the farm?

40 hens, 5 sheep

Step-by-step explanation:

40 x 2 = 80 (hens have 2 legs)

100 - 80 = 20 > 20 legs left for sheep,, sheep have 4 legs

20/4 = 5 so there are 5 sheep

40 hens, 5 sheep

Step-by-step explanation:

40 x 2 = 80 (hens have 2 legs)

100 - 80 = 20 > 20 legs left for sheep,, sheep have 4 legs

20/4 = 5 so there are 5 sheep

aloha~! my name is zalgo and i am here to you out on this amazing day. to answer your question, yes, nonzero numbers can have a greatest common factor and that would be 1. still don't get it? let me considering every number is divisible by 1 and hence every number has 1 as a factor of theirs. so, if 2 nonzero numbers didn't share any gcf (greatest common factor), they would still have a factor in common and that would be 1.

i hope that this ! : p
