    Let the height of the kiwi be x, then the height of the ostrich is 20 + 4x.

    20 + 4x = 108

    4x = 108 - 20 = 88

    x = 88/4 = 22

    The height of the kiwi is 22 inches.

    H=height of ostrich

    k=height of kiwi

    h is 20 more than 4 times k

    k=20+4k

    k=108

    108=20+4k

    minus 20 from both sides

    88=4k

    divide both sides by 4

    22=k

    answer is A
