The estimate for the total population size is 1600.

Setting up a proportion for this, we know that 150 out of our 300 turtle sample is marked; this is the first ratio for the proportion.  We also know that we marked 800 of our total population, which we will call x:

150/300 = 800/x

Cross multiply:
150*x = 300*800
150x = 240000

Divide both sides by 150:
150x/150 = 240000/150
x = 1600

Bad White [126]
To do this, you cube each section. You cube the 11 and the c^4. 11^3=1331 and (c^4)^3=c^12 (You multiply the 2 exponents). So your answer is 1331c^12
