Height of the kiwi = ?  Call it 'K' for now, until we find out what it is.

4 times the height of a kiwi  =  4 K

20 inches taller than that  =  4 K + 20

You said that's 108 inches, so we can write

                                                      4 K + 20 = 108

Subtract  20  from each side:    4 K          =    88

Divide each side by  4 :                 K         =     22 inches .
