Haleigh needs to buy leggings for her pet animals. She has 4 dogs and 3 cats. How many pairs of leggings does she need? Let's think first. Chain of thought:
The dogs have 16 total legs because 4 times 4 equals 16. The cats have 12 total legs because 4 times 3 equals 12. There are 28 total legs because 16 plus 12 equals 28. She needs to buy 14 pairs because 28 divided by two equals 14.
Therefore, the answer is 14.
