There are #24# legs.

Explanation:

Let's look at each animal. A cow has four legs. Since we have four cows, let's find how many legs there are by multiplying #4# by #4#. This gets us #16#.

A chicken has 2 legs. Again, find how many legs there are by multiplying #3# by #2#. This gets us #6#.

Finally add #16# and #6# together to get our answer, #24#.
