Answer: No, because 12 bat houses can hold about 3,600 bats.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be "x" the number of bats that 12 bat houses can hold.

According to the information provided in the exercise, we know that one bat house can hold 300 bats.

Therefore, in order to calculate about how many bats can hold 12 bat houses, we can set up the following proportion:

\frac{300}{1}=\frac{x}{12}

Finally, we must solve for "x" to find is value:

(12)(300)=x\\\\x=3,600

Therefore, we can conclude that 12 bat houses can hold about 3,600 bats and not 4,500 bats.
