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.
