John had some animals. One-fourth were horses, one-half were cows, and the rest were pigs. He had 8 pigs. How many animals did he have altogether?

what is the total cost of the rechargeable batteries and battery chager?

John had some animals. One-fourth were horses, one-half were cows, and the rest were pigs. He had 8 pigs. How many animals did he have altogether?

Let x = number of animals

1/4 x + 1/2 x = x - 8

Multiply both sides by 4.

x + 2x = 4x - 32

You should be able to calculate it from here.

First, if you have a question, it is much better to put it in as a separate post in <Post a New Question> rather than attaching it to a previous question, where it is more likely to be overlooked.

To some extent, it would depend on the type of batteries you have (D, C, AA, AAA, 9V).

Since this is not my area of expertise, I searched Google under the key words "rechargable batteries" to get this:

In the future, you can find the information you desire more quickly, if you use appropriate key words to do your own search. Also see http://hanlib.sou.edu/searchtools/.

How to evaluate this abc-3d?

To solve this problem, let's break it down step by step.

First, let's find out how many pigs John had. The problem tells us that the rest of the animals, which are pigs, numbered 8. Therefore, we know that 8 represents the remaining fraction of animals after the horses and cows have been counted.

Next, let's determine the fraction of animals represented by the pigs. We are told that the pigs represent the remaining portion of the animals, so the fraction of pigs can be found by subtracting the fractions representing the horses and cows from 1. Since one-fourth of the animals were horses and one-half were cows, we can calculate the fraction representing the pigs as follows:

Fraction of pigs = 1 - (1/4 + 1/2)

Now, let's simplify this fraction:

Fraction of pigs = 1 - (2/8 + 4/8)
= 1 - 6/8
= 1 - 3/4
= 1/4

We have determined that the fraction of animals represented by the pigs is 1/4.

Finally, let's find out how many animals in total John had. We know that 8 pigs represent 1/4 of the animals, so we can set up a proportion to solve for the total number of animals:

8 pigs / 1/4 = Total animals / 1

To solve for the total animals, we can multiply both sides of the equation by 1/4:

8 pigs / 1/4 * 1/4 = Total animals * 1/4
32 pigs = Total animals

Therefore, John had a total of 32 animals altogether.
