Answer: Frog+Sheep+Horse=27
Work: (which took a whole bunch less time than typing it)
Eq1  F+S = 10  thus F=10-S
Eq2  F+H = 20 so F+H = 2(F+S) = 2F+2S
so F+H-F=2F+2S-F thus H=F+2S
S+H = 24 so S+F+2S=24 thus F+3S=24
from Eq1 F=10-S so 10-S+3S=24 so 10+2S=24 so 2S=14 thus S=7
since S=7 then from Eq1 F=10-S thus F=3
 From Eq2 F+H =20 so 3+H = 20 thus H=17
So F+S+H = howinthehelldoyougetthemallonthescaleatthesametime?
