an aquarium has 32 different habitats. Each habitat has between 15 and 24 fish. What is the least and greatest number of fish that they could have? (1 point)

Question

480 fish and 768 fish

480 fish and 11,520 fish

360 fish and 480 fish

480 fish and 1,248 fish

Answer 1

To find the least and greatest number of fish, we need to consider the minimum and maximum number of fish in each habitat.

If each of the 32 different habitats has the minimum of 15 fish, then the least number of fish in the aquarium would be 32 * 15 = 480 fish.

Similarly, if each habitat has the maximum of 24 fish, then the greatest number of fish in the aquarium would be 32 * 24 = 768 fish.

Therefore, the correct answer is 480 fish and 768 fish.
