Question

total pieces of food eaten (from previous page) flock x 147 flock y 93 flock z 60 food percentage % % % simulated number of birds in flock for 3rd generation divide each flocks total pieces of food by 300, the total number of pieces of food eaten. **multiply the food percentage for each flock by the total number of birds (30). done

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate food percentage for Flock X

$147\div300\times100 = 49\%$

Step2: Calculate food percentage for Flock Y

$93\div300\times100 = 31\%$

Step3: Calculate food percentage for Flock Z

$60\div300\times100 = 20\%$

Step4: Calculate simulated number of birds for Flock X in 3rd generation

$0.49\times30 = 14.7\approx15$

Step5: Calculate simulated number of birds for Flock Y in 3rd generation

$0.31\times30 = 9.3\approx9$

Step6: Calculate simulated number of birds for Flock Z in 3rd generation

$0.20\times30 = 6$

Answer:

	Flock X	Flock Y	Flock Z
Simulated Number of Birds in Flock for 3rd Generation	15	9	6
