Let the number& of cows =~
So, the number of bulls =~
Number of hens
Number of caretakers required =~
Number of feet =(Number~of~feet~of& cow) (Number~of~cows) ~(Number~of~feet& of& bull (Number~of~bulls) (Number~of~feet~of& hen) ~(Number~of~hens)& (Number~of~feet~of& caretaker) (Number~of~caretakers)~
=~
Number of head =~(Number~of~head& of& cow) (Number~of~cows) (Number~of~head~of& bull ~(Number~of~bulls) (Number~of~head~of& hen) (Number~of~hens) (Number~of~head~of& caretaker) (Number~of~caretakers)~=~
Since,
