Question

In a room there are two kids and a few dogs. If the total number of legs in the room are 48, how many dogs are there?

• A.
  24
• B.
  17
• C.
  11
• D. 6

Answer 1

The correct option is C

11
Number of kids in the room = 2
so number of human legs in the room
= 2 x 2
= 4

Total number of legs in the room = 48
Total number of dog legs in the room
= 48 - 4
= 44

Each dog has 4 legs, so number of dogs in the room = 44 ÷ 4
= 11
