Female 120 93 63 34
Adult 173 103 72 58
Baby 52 61 33 28

Answer 1

The answer is below.

Explanation:

Elk: Total elk is 225

• Males:
  `(105)/(225)=(7)/(15)`

• Females:
  `(120)/(225)=(8)/(15)`

• Adults:
  `(173)/(225)`

• Baby:
  `(52)/(225)`

Mountain Goat: Total Goat is 164

• Males:
  `(71)/(164)`

• Females:
  `(93)/(164)`

• Adults:
  `(103)/(164)`

• Baby:
  `(61)/(164)`

Deer: Total Deer is 105

• Males:
  `(42)/(105)`

• Females:
  `(63)/(105)`

• Adults:
  `(72)/(105)`

• Baby:
  `(33)/(105)`

Moose: Total Moose is 86

• Males:
  `(52)/(86)=(26)/(43)`

• Females:
  `(34)/(86)=(17)/(43)`

• Adults:
  `(58)/(86)=(29)/(43)`

• Baby:
  `(28)/(86)=(14)/(43)`
