How do you solve these word puzzles?
2 Answers
The two puzzles are as follows:
Pigs = 71
Sheep = 78
Bulls = 91
Horses = ?
Mauve = 39
Green = 26
Cream = 21
Black = ?
These are the last 2 puzzles in a word puzzles challenge that we have entered at our local and we cannot seem to find a way to solve them.
All help is greatly appreciated. Many thanks in advance.

each consonant is worth 20, each vowel 5, sum them and add 4; thus
pigs = 3x20 + 1x7 + 4 = 60 + 7 + 4 = 71
sheep = 3x20 + 2x7 + 4 = 60 + 14 + 4 = 78
bulls = 4x20 + 1x7 + 4 = 80 + 7 + 4 = 91
horses = 4x20 + 2x7 + 4 = 80 + 14 + 4 = 98
