Answer:

60 books

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number of books Willy has be x , then

Tammy has 4x books

Willy has 180 fewer books , that is Tammy has 180 more than Willy , so

4x = x + 180 ( subtract x from both sides )

3x = 180 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 60

Thus

Willy has 60 books andTammy has 4 × 60 = 240 books

which is 180 more than Willy
