Answer:
405
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use a ratio to solve
3 infected x infected
------------------ = ----------------
50 sampled 6750 population
Using cross products
3*6750 = 50x
Divide each side by 50
3*6750/50 = x
405
Answer:
Around 405 elk should be infected with the parasite.
Step-by-step explanation:
6,750/50=135
135 * 3 = 405
