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.

let n = number of signatures she has now.

Create an equation to help solve the problem.

8,000 signatures = 4n.

To find out how many signatures Fiona has now, divide both sides of our equation by 4.

2,000 = n.

Fiona has 2,000 signatures right now
