a milkman has some buffaloes,cows and goats.he has goats eqal to 5/2 times the number of cows and cows equal to 3/2 times the number of buffaloes.if there are 150 animals with the milkman how many of each category does he have with him

Answer : 

Let Total number of Goats  =  x 
Total number of Cows  =  y
And
Total number of  buffaloes =  
So, 

xyz  =  150                              --------------- ( 1)

And As given ​goats equal to 52 times the number of cows ,
So,
x  = 52 y                                         --------------- ( 2 )
And
Cows equal to 32 times the number of buffaloes
SO,
y  = 32 z                                        --------------- ( 3 )
And
z  = 23y                                        --------------- ( 4 )

Now from equation 2 and 4 we substitute values in equation 1 , and get 


 52 y + y + 23y =  150  

Now taking LCM 

15 y + 6y + 4y6  =  150

25y  = 900

y  = 36   , Substitute that value in equation 2 and 4 , we get 

x  = 52 ( 36 )   = 5 × 18  =  90 
And
z23 ( 36 )  = 2 ​×  12  =  24 
So,
Milkman have , Total number of Goats  =  90
Total number of Cows  =  36
And
Total number of  buffaloes =  24                                                                       ( Ans )
