There are three types of animals in the pictures in Mica's album: horses, cows, and sleep. The ratio of horses to total number of animals in the pictures is 2:8. The ratio of cows to total number of animals in the pictures is 1:4. a. What can you conclude about the number of horses and the number of cows in the pictures?

2+2=4

4-5=-1
