Ok well I see your problem you weren't doing the problem right it said There are twice as many giraffes as there are elephants. There are twice as many camels as there are giraffes. There are twice as many alligators as there are camels. you weren't doing that you were adding not multiplying by two let's say you have 2 elephants there are twice as many giraffes so you have 4 giraffes there are twice as many camels as giraffes so you have 8 camels and there are twice as many alligators as camels so you have 16 alligators see what I'm doing
