🎲SHORTCUT FOR FINDING TOTAL NUMBER OF ANIMALS INSIDE A FARM. (LESS THAN 10 SECONDS)🎲
🍎 A farm has a number of ducks and cows. If their total heads are 35 and their total legs are 120, how
many ducks are there?
🍎1st step : HALF the total number of legs.
120 ÷ 2 = 60
🍎2nd step = Half Legs minus total number of heads.
60 - 35 = 25 (cows) automatic sa four-legged animals ito.
🍎3rd step = Total Heads minus number of four legged animals.
35 - 25 = 10 (ducks) ✔
To Check :
Cows = 25 × 4 = 100 legs
Ducks = 10 × 2 = 20 legs
100 + 20 = 120 total legs
🍎25 cows + 10ducks = 35 total animals in the farm ✌

🍎EXAMPLE #1
There are a number of sheeps and chickens in the farm. If the total number of heads is 50 and their total
legs is 180, how many sheeps are there?
🍎1st step : 180 ÷ 2 = 90
🍎2nd step : 90 - 50 = 40 sheeps ✔
🍎3rd step = 50 - 40 = 10 chickens ✔
Checking:
Sheeps = 40 × 4 = 160 legs
Chickens = 10 × 2 = 20 legs
160 + 20 = 180 total legs ✌

🎲HOW TO SOLVE AGE PROBLEM🎲

Q1. Cassey is thrice as old as Coleen. In 4 years, Cassey will be twice as old as Coleen.
How old is Cassey now?
Step by step tayo para masundan.
🍎"Cassey is thrice as old as Coleen."
Cassey = 3x
Coleen = x
🍎"In 4 years, Cassey will be twice as old as Coleen."
Cassey = 3x + 4
Coleen = x + 4
🍎Saan mapupunta yung twice sa statement? Since twice daw ang tanda ni Cassey after 4 years so kay
Coleen ilalagay yung twice para maging balance sila.
Cassey = 3x + 4
Coleen = 2(x + 4)
🍎Equation :
3x + 4 = 2(x+4)
3x + 4 = 2x + 8 (distributive property)
3x - 2x = 8 - 4 (nag cchange sign kapag lumilipat sa kabila)
x=4✔
🍎Present Age
Cassey = 3x = 3(4) = 12 ✔
Coleen = x = 4 ✔
🍎Kapag tinanong kung anong age nila after 4 years.
Cassey = 3x+4 = 3(4)+4 = 16
Coleen = x + 4 = 4 + 4 = 8
🍎Checking
Thrice daw tanda ni Cassey kay Coleen sa present age. 12 & 4
Twice daw ang tanda ni Cassey kay Coleen after 4 years. 16 & 8
🍎Q2. Faith is 2 years older than Dian. In 5 years, their total age will be 36. How old is Faith now?
🍎"Faith is 2 years older than Dian."
Faith = x + 2
Dian = x
🍎"In 5 years, their total age will be 36."
Faith = x + 2 + 5
Dian = x + 5
Total = 36
x + 2 + 5 + x + 5 = 36
2x + 12 = 36
2x = 36 - 12
2x = 24
x = 12 ✔
🍎PRESENT AGE:
Faith = x + 2 = 12 + 2 = 14 ✔
Dian = 12 ✔
🍎Checking:
Their total age after 5 years is 36.
Faith = 14 + 5 = 19
Dian = 12 + 5 = 17
19 + 17 = 36 ✔
