Of the 50 fish that alan caught from the lake, 14 were trout. the estimated population of the lake is 7,500 fish. about how many trout would you expect to be in the lake

Well do percentage. percent is mostly related to 100. so let's double the amount of fish caught all together. to make it 100 that you caught so that means you caught 28 trout..so you have to find 28% of 7500
How many 100s make 7500? 75
so multiply 75×28= 2100(2100 would be 28% of 7500)
now remember we doubled to get an easy%.
Now divide 2100÷2= 1050
estimate of trout 1050
