Question

80% Quincy, Lucy, Prudence and John, all turkeys, are hiking through the forest. They notice seven bees and five cockroaches, and in the trees, they spot eight spiders. There are also three deer and four boars. Behind a bush, they can see a pair of antlers. How many legs do all the numbered beasts combined amount to

Answer 1

Answer:

28  

Explanation:

A beast is a large four-footed mammal, so we can ignore Quincy, Lucy, Prudence, John, the pair of antlers, the bees, the cockroaches, and the spiders.

A wild boar is certainly a beast, and a deer is a four-footed mammal, so we will count it as a beast.

Total number of beast legs:

 3 deer × 4 legs/deer = 12 legs

4 boars × 4 legs/boar = 16 legs

                      TOTAL = 28 legs

All the numbered beasts combined have 28 legs.
