Sorry. Please check the correct answer below.
**Method 1: Method of Assumption**
Assume all were Chickens, there would be only \\begin{array}{rcl} 51\\times2=102 \\end{array} legs.
However, there are actually 108 legs.
Therefore, there are \\begin{array}{rcl} 108-102=6 \\end{array} extra legs.
If we replace one Chicken by one Cow, we will have \\begin{array}{rcl} 4-2=2 \\end{array} more legs.
Therefore, the number of Cows is \\begin{array}{rcl} 6\\div2=3. \\end{array} The number of Chickens is \\begin{array}{rcl} 51-3=48. \\end{array}**Method 2: Method of Assumption**
Assume all were Cows, there would be only \\begin{array}{rcl} 51\\times4=204 \\end{array} legs.
However, there are actually only 108 legs.
Therefore, there are a shortage of \\begin{array}{rcl} 204-108=96 \\end{array} legs.
If we replace one Cow by one Chicken, we will have \\begin{array}{rcl} 4-2=2 \\end{array} less legs.
Therefore, the number of Chickens is \\begin{array}{rcl} 96\\div2=48. \\end{array} The number of Cows is \\begin{array}{rcl} 51-48=3. \\end{array}

Sorry. Please check the correct answer below.
**Method 1: Method of Assumption**
Assume all were Chickens, there would be only \\begin{array}{rcl} 99\\times2=198 \\end{array} legs.
However, there are actually 220 legs.
Therefore, there are \\begin{array}{rcl} 220-198=22 \\end{array} extra legs.
If we replace one Chicken by one Horse, we will have \\begin{array}{rcl} 4-2=2 \\end{array} more legs.
Therefore, the number of Horses is \\begin{array}{rcl} 22\\div2=11. \\end{array} The number of Chickens is \\begin{array}{rcl} 99-11=88. \\end{array}**Method 2: Method of Assumption**
Assume all were Horses, there would be only \\begin{array}{rcl} 99\\times4=396 \\end{array} legs.
However, there are actually only 220 legs.
Therefore, there are a shortage of \\begin{array}{rcl} 396-220=176 \\end{array} legs.
If we replace one Horse by one Chicken, we will have \\begin{array}{rcl} 4-2=2 \\end{array} less legs.
