Simulated Number of Birds in Flock for 2nd Generation**
* Divide each flock's total pieces of food by 300, the total number of pieces of food eaten.
** Multiply the food percentage for each flock by the total number of birds (30).

Answer 1

Completed table:

- Pieces of food eaten: 57 → Food percentage = 57/300 = 0.19 = 19.0% → Simulated birds (30 total): 0.19 × 30 = 5.7 ≈ 6 birds
- Pieces of food eaten: 153 → Food percentage = 153/300 = 0.51 = 51.0% → Simulated birds (30 total): 0.51 × 30 = 15.3 ≈ 15 birds
- Pieces of food eaten: 90 → Food percentage = 90/300 = 0.30 = 30.0% → Simulated birds (30 total): 0.30 × 30 = 9.0 = 9 birds

Notes:
- Percentages sum to 100% and expected (fractional) bird counts sum to 30 (5.7 + 15.3 + 9.0 = 30).
- I rounded the simulated bird counts to the nearest whole bird (6, 15, 9). If you prefer a different rounding/stochastic method, tell me and I can adjust.
