A group of marine biologists tags 45 great white sharks off the coast of Mexico

to study migratory patterns. All of the tag numbers are unique. Weeks later, the
marine biologists travel to Hawaii. While there, they randomly capture and release
20 great white sharks per day, for three consecutive days. On the first day, 3 of the
sharks have the original tags. On the second day, 2 of the sharks have the original
tags. On the third day, 4 of the sharks have the original tags. Based on the data,
what is the estimated population of great white sharks that have migrated from
Mexico to Hawaii?
