Word math problem, please help?!?!?
Team A and Team B played an extra long, high-scoring game of football. If 6 of the goals scored by Team B were instead scored by team A, the game would have been tied. But if 6 of the goals scored by Team A were instead scored by Team B , Team B would have 4 times as many goals as Team A. How many goals did Team B score in this game?


I stink at word problems please help, thank you all
