Pheasants 5638

Hunters caught the same number of hares and pheasants. Hares and pheasants had the same number of legs. How many hares were there?

Correct answer:

z =  0

Step-by-step explanation:


z=b
4z = 2b

z=b
4·z = 2·b

b-z = 0
2b-4z = 0

Pivot: Row 1 ↔ Row 2
2b-4z = 0
b-z = 0

Row 2 - 1/2 · Row 1 → Row 2
2b-4z = 0
z = 0


z = 0/1 = 0
b = 0+4z/2 = 0/2 = 0

b = 0
z = 0
