Which would be the best way to measure the amount of loose rabbits on a farm?
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

Estimated Guess so D because if there are more then 10 rabbits you do not want to count every single one. So you would look at how many five are and see how many groups look like about 5 and then guess from there. So an estimated guess would quickly and easily get you a decent amount close to counting them.

Hows that for an answer.
