There are 3 times elephants compared to giraffes in the safari. if there is a total of 88 elephants and giraffes, how many elephants are there in the safari?

There are 66 elephants in the safari. 

Solution:
The number 88 refers to both elephants and giraffes that are in the safari. We know that the number of elephants is thrice the number of giraffes. So we can let x be the number of giraffes and 3x be the number of elephants. 

We will then come up with the following equation:
3x + x = 88

Then, just add the two variables, and continue the operation.
4x = 88
x = 88/4
x = 22

Now we know that there are 22 giraffes in the safari. So 3x, or 3(22) = 66. There are 66 elephants in the safari.
