To determine the number of deer in a game preserve, a conservationist catches 300
\n" ); document.write( " deer, tags them and lets them loose.
\n" ); document.write( " Later, 300 deer are caught, 165 of them are tagged. How many deer are in the preserve?
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Write a ratio equation: let d = actual number of deer:
\n" ); document.write( "\"300%2F165\" = \"d%2F300\"
\n" ); document.write( "165d = 300 * 300
\n" ); document.write( "165d = 90000
\n" ); document.write( "d = \"90000%2F165\"
\n" ); document.write( "d = 545 deer
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
