Answer:

8 Pigs.

Step-by-step explanation:

~ P = the number of pig

~ D = the number of ducks

p + d = 10

  4p + 2d = 36

4(10 - d) + 2d = 36

40 - 4d + 2d = 36

40 - 2d = 36

-40       = -40

    -2d = -4

    -2      -2

        d = 2 ducks

p + d = 10

p + 2 = 10

   Therefore, 8 pigs. :)) hope this helped you :))
