Can you get a sum of 1000 using sixteen 4s and only an addition operator

On Christmas , A beggar earns 71 rupees in form of 20-paisa and 25-paisa.
He collects total of 324 coins.
Can you tell me how many number of 20-paisa and 25-paisa he got ?
20 paisa coins : 200
25 paisa coins : 124
Explanation:
Say he collect 20-paisa coins be A
Say he collect 25-paisa coins be B
=>number of 25-paisa coins = (324 - A).
Therefore,
0.20 X A + 0.25 (324 - A) = 71
=>20A + 25 (324 - A) = 7100
=>5A = 1000
=>A = 200.
Hence, number of 25-paisa coins = (324 - A) - 124.

A octopus has 8 legs. A hippogriff has 6 legs and 2 pairs of wings. A sphinx has 6 legs and one pair of wings. Now we have all 3 kinds and a total of 18 insects in a cage. We have a total of 118 legs and 20 pairs of wings. How many insects do we have of each kind ?
There are 5 octopus, 7 hippogriff & 6 sphinx.
Let 'A' be the number of octopus, 'B' be number of hippogriff and 'C' be number of sphinx.
A+B+C = 18
8A+6B+6C = 118
2B+C = 20
Solving this, A=5, B=7, C=6
