Fiona is gathering signatures on a petition to save the Orangutans. If she gets 4 times the number of signatures that she has right now, she will have at least enough to get a special mention on the Save the Orangutans website, an amazing 8000 signatures. How many signatures has Fiona collected so far? Let "n" be the number of signatures she has now.

2000

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up equation

The total signatures she needs is 4 times as many as she has. From this we can create the equation (4n = total signatures)

We know that the total number of signatures is 8000, so plug this into the equation to get 4n = 8000

Solve for n

Now that we have an equation, we can solve for n by dividing both sides by 4

4n = 8000

n = 8000 / 4 = 2000

Final Answer

Fiona has collected 2000 signatures so far
