Howdy! I am having some trouble on this "math question." Please help with this.

There are tiger and calico cats in a shelter. There are 4 times as many tiger cats as there are calico cats. Write an expression that represents the number of tiger cats if x represents the number of calico cats.

Thanks a billion! Ill give you so many flowers.

Just translate the English into Math. (Math is a language)

Number of calicos ---- x

"There are 4 times as many tiger cats as there are calico cats"
---- Number of tigers = 4x
