In Aunt Melly’s attics there are also spiders and ants, the total of 136 legs and 20 heads. If a spider has 8 legs and an ant has 6 legs, how many spiders and how many ants are there?

4 answers

s + a = 20 , where s is the number of spiders and a is the number of ants.

8s+6a = 136

you have two equations in 2 unknowns, just solve for s and a

hint: I would use substitution using s = 20-a
