    To solve this problem we can use equation.

    If we assume that x is number of crocodiles, we can say that number of alligators is 4*x because its 4 times more.

    We know that together is 40, so we have

    x+4*x=40

    Now we are reducing.

    5x=40 / : 5 dividing both sides by 5

    x=9 - number of alligators
