Honestly, I got lost at 'Let's set each one equal to Y (Chickens (because 314 is divisible by 2 easier than 4))'
What if I think its divisible by 4 easier? I'm simply not a rational thinker. I must analyze and question every behavior and action in math.


I kept getting all the x's and y's mixed up. They are so easy to mix up.


It is wrong, that when you say 'plug it back in' that the 'plug it in' air freshener song goes off in my head?





The answer is 42 blue..

4X + 2Y + ?Z = 314 legs

and

1X + 1Y + ?Z = 120 heads

I'm the type, had this been on a test, my test paper would be absolutely covered in chickens and horses. And THAT would be fun.. drawing 120 chickens and horses..
