Dairy cattle are thinner and more extreme in the femininity/masculinity traits in cows and bulls, respectively. Cows have LARGE udders that give more milk than the calf needs, and the milk is used for human consumption.
Draught or draft cattle are more blockier and thicker in depth and muscle and fat cover over their skeletal frame. They are used for pulling carts, ploughs, and other things and are also more commonly used for beef than milk.

So with 80 head of cattle, we have a 1:3 ratio of dairy to beef, respectively. That translates to: for every head of dairy cattle there are three beef cattle. Since, mathematically, 80 total head of cattle with a 1:3 ratio don't really work out to nice, round numbers, we will have to work with fractions and such. 1:3 ratio can be converted to a fraction: 1/3. 1/3=0.3333333... So, with 80 head of cattle, we find the number of dairy cattle: 80 x (1/3) = 26.66666666.... Which we could round off to 26 dairy cattle. Since we have 80 total head, we subtract to find how many beef cattle are in the herd: 80 - 26 = 54. So the answer is thus: If there are 80 head of cattle, and the ratio of dairy to beef cattle is 1:3, then there are 26 dairy cattle and 54 beef cattle.
