Hi there!
The correct answer is 6.25 times.
This is how you get there:
1) First off, you are going to need to have the same unit (either cm or mm). I used millimeters for this problem. 25cm=250mm
2) This next part is very easy to get wrong. You need to figure out what you are dividing, and by what. Simply look at the problem. <span><em>"How much longer is the guinea pig than her fish?" </em>This shows what numbers you should be getting. The guinea pig is 250mm long, where the fish is only 40. This means that her guinea pig should be larger. 250÷40=6.25
If you did this problem the other way, you would've ended up with .16. If you put the sizes into perspective, you will notice that this is highly unlikely.
I hope that I have been able to simplify this problem for you!

I'm a little confused by your question.
You said 60-8 = 52 which is true.
Then, you asked 4x = 52 in an integer form
x = 52/4
x = 13. (Is that what you're asking?)
I'm not sure if this helps, but please comment if you need any help! Hope this helps though! :D
Formula: f(x) = a(x – h)2 + k
transformation: 1 unit right 2 units up
vertex: (h,k) -> (1,2) it’s positive because it has to be the opposite
maximum/minimum: maximum
range: (-∞, ∞)
domain: y ≥2
