QUESTION:
When the wildlife commission was finished, 1/5 of the population of beavers had been observed. If the beaver population numbers 34,260, how many beavers were observed?

That means, number of beavers observed is = (1/5) times total population.
===> (1/5) * 34,260
==> 34,260/5
==> 6852
Number of beavers observed is 6852.
