Answer:

197

Step-by-step explanation:

So, if you catch 100 fish on both days, that means that you have caught 200 fish. 100 on one day and 100 on the next. But, since you've caught 3 fish twice, that means that three out of 200 fish are the same and cannot be counted as new fish. So 3 from 200 is 197 fish. Hope this helped!

Day 1: 100 (3 tagged)

Day 2: 97 (3 tagged)

100+97=197

or

Day 1: 100 (3 tagged)

Day 2: 100 (3 tagged)

100+100= 200

200-3=197

Answer, 197 fish.
