Cows, horses and dogs (Posted on 2008-10-20) Difficulty: 2 of 5
I have cows, horses and dogs, a different prime number of each. If I multiply the number of cows (c) by the total of cows and horses (c+h), the product is 120 more than the number of dogs (d), that is: c*(c+h) = 120 + d.

How many of each do I have?
