Question

To determine the number of trout in a lake, a conservationist catches 120 trout, tags them and throws them back

into the lake. Later, 44 trout are caught; 11 of them are tagged. How many trout would the conservationist expect
to be in the lake?

Answer 1

Answer:350 Trouts

Explanation:To determine the number of trouts the conservationist expect to be in the lake, you add 120+120 that equal to 240.Then you add 240+40 that equals to 284.Then you add 284+44 that equals to 328.Then you add 328+11 that equals to 339.Finally, you add 339+11 to get your answer:350.
