Anature museum has 2008 specimens of early birds, some with 222 wings and some with 444 wings. the specimens have a total of 40384 wings. how many specimens are there with each number of wings?

Let's assume

number of birds with 2 wings is x

number of birds with 4 wings is y

A nature museum has 2008 specimens of early birds

so,

Total of wings of 2 wings bird =2x

Total of wings of 4 wings bird =4y

The specimens have a total of 4384 wings

so, we get

we can divide both sides by 2

so, we get system of equations as

we can solve for x and y

We can subtract both equations

so,

number of birds with 2 wings is 1824

number of birds with 4 wings is 184.............Answer

the answer is c)8
