Each morning papa notes the birds feeding on his bird feeder. so far this month, he has seen 59 blue jays, 68 black crows, 12 red robins, and 1 cardinal. if 300 birds visit papa's bird feeder, how many blue jays can he expect to see?

Add all of the birds together.

59 + 68 + 12 + 1 = 140

Solve what percentage 59 is of 140.

x * 140 = 59
Divide both sides by 140.
x = .421428571

Multiply 300 by that percent.

300 * .421428571 = 126.428571 which rounds up to 126.

Papa can expect 126 blue jays.

126 blue jays.

hope this helps you(:

if not plz let me know (:
