For a change, this month’s Puzzle of the Month is adapted from an 1885 school textbook. If you get stuck, you could always ask your great-great-great-great-grandparents for help!
Farmers A and B have 30 cows between them and sell at different prices; each receives the same amount. If A had sold at B’s price, he would have received £320, and if B had sold at A’s price, she would have received £245. How many cows did Farmer A own?
