Hi :)

We know that there are 50 pheasants

And that after one year the number of them increases 3 times

We have four years so
4•3=12

50+12=62

And now we have the answer

If the population triples each year so
50*3 = 150 pheasants in one year
to find it for 4 years
150*4 = 600 pheasants after 4 years
