# Legs

In the room are four-legged chairs, three-legged stool, and all are sitted with (one) people. I counted all the leg room and there were a total of 39. How many are there chairs, stool and people?

Correct result:

x =  4
y =  3
z =  7

#### Solution:

$39 = (4+2)x+(3+2)y \ \\ z = x+y \ \\ \ \\ x=4; y = 3 \ \\ z = x+y = 4+3 = 7$
$z=4+3=7$

Our examples were largely sent or created by pupils and students themselves. Therefore, we would be pleased if you could send us any errors you found, spelling mistakes, or rephasing the example. Thank you!
