the cat was a million years old
Well, dog years are 7 years. So when a dog is 1 year old, in dog years it is 7 years old. For example if you are still confused.....if a dog is 2 years old, since every dog year is 7 years just multiply (Ex. 2X7=14) So if a dog is 2 years old it will be considered 14 years
Generally speaking, one dog year is regarded as being comparable to seven human years although this is only a very rough equivalent. So a 15 year-old dog would be around 105 years old as a human!

It's a hyperbole.
A hyperbole is an exaggeration, but more extreme. "I'm so hungry, I could eat a horse" is an example of a hyperbole.

A Hyperbole is a literary device used to provide emphasis through exaggeration, so yes, that was an example of hyperbole.
Hyperbole means exaggeration so you are being asked to exaggerate in your sentence.
IN the tall tale it says that he killed a bear when he was only three, so that would be a hyperbole
x7 so it's 21
If the dog is 2 years old in dog years than just times that by 7 so in human years you dog is 14 years old
He's so old he went out of his mind
hyberbilye hyperbole
for every year a dog is 7 so 7 times 2 =14 so your dog is about 14 or more
