Answer:

vegetarians= 28

chickens= 44

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number of vegetarians be x

and chickens be y

So

x+2.7y=119.6----------1

x+y=72--------------2

from 2, x= 72-y

put x= 72-y in 1

72-y+2.7y=119.6

-y+2.7y=119.6-72

1.7y=47.6

divide both sides by 1.7

y=47.6/1.7

y=28

put y=28 in 1

x+28=72

y= 72-28

y=44
