Let x = ducks and y = pigs

x (ducks) + y (pigs) = 22 (total animals)

2x (legs of ducks) + 4y (legs of pigs) = 56 (total legs)

Multiply the first part (the total animals) by two

2x + 2y = 44

then subtract the two problems

2y = 12 then y = 6

go back to the original x + 6 = 22 then x = 16

16 ducks (32 legs) + 6 pigs (24 legs) = 22 animals (56 legs)
