One day, a person went to horse racing area, Instead of counting the number of human and horses, he instead counted 74 heads and 196 legs. Yet he knew the number of humans and horses there. How did he do it, and how many humans and horses are there?

Crazy algebra problem! We need to know, as this guy does, how many humans and how many horses are at the race. Choose a letter to represent the number of humans, and then choose another letter to represent the number of horses. Last time I looked, both humans and horses have one head per living creature. what does that tell you about the sum of the number of human heads and the number of horse heads?
