In a caravan, in addition to 50 hens, there are 45 goats and 8 camels with some keepers. If the total number of feet be 224 more than the number of heads in the caravan, the number of keepers is

Answer» Let number of keepers be x. Then, Total number of feet = 2 x 50 + 4 x 45 + 4 x 8 + 2x = 2x + 312. Total number of heads = 50 + 45 + 8 + x= 103 + x. Therefore (2x + 312) = (103 + x) + 224 or x = 15.
