predict to be Tilapia based on your sample?

Answer -

Here,

Total Tilapia on three lakes 898

Total Fishes on three lakes 2418

If there are 6,045 fishes altogether in the three lakes, then No. of Tilapia will be 2245

Question - 6: If the total number of four fish species contained in 1,000 litres of water from
Hakaluki Haor and the volume of Hakaloki Haor is 125,000,000 cubic meters, how many Catla
fishes would you expect to find in the whole Haor based on your sampling? Be sure to include
your calculations in your answer.

Answer -

Here,

1000 liter = 1 cubic

Hakaluki haor = 125,000,000 cubic meters

Now, the Catla fishes are = 623* 125,000,000 = 77,875,000,000 = 77,875*10^6
