Researchers counted 8,912 monarch butterflies on one branch of a tree at a site in mexico. they estimated that the total number of butterflies at the site was 1000 times as large. about how many butterflies were at the sitein all. explain your thinking and include a statement of the solution.

In this problem of monarch butterflies the researchers found out that one site contains 8,912 of these creatures. And problem is asking how many butterflies all in all.
Hence, we let x = one site

One site expressed as X = 8,912
All site 1000 large is expressed as (1000)(x)

Solution:
1.       Since x=8,912, we substitute the x of 1000(x)
2.       Which becomes 1000(8912)
3.       Finding the product of these two which is 8,912,000

Therefore, there are a total of 8,912,000 were at the site in total.
