Answer:

47

Explanation:

According to the statement, 35 exhibitions represent 74.47% of all the zoo exhibits, they ask us how many they would be in total, that is, 100%. We apply the following:

(35 displays / 74.47%) * 100% = 46.99 displays.

We are told to approach the nearest whole number, therefore there would be 47 exhibitions in total.
