by : $119$

 * The Three Drovers
 * Three drovers with varied flocks met on the highway.
 * Said Jack to Jim: "If I give you six pigs for a horse then you will have twice as many animals in your drove as I will have in mine."
 * Said Dan to Jack: "If I give you fourteen sheep for a horse, then you'll have three times as many animals as I have got."
 * Said Jim to Dan: "But if I give you four cows for a horse, then you'll have six times as many animals as I."


 * There were no deals; but can you tell me how many animals there were in the three droves?
