You catch, tag, and release 100 fish back into a pond. According to the data below, what is the best estimate of the number of fish in the pond? a. 417 b. 500 c. 318 d. 124 Please select the best answer from the choices provided.

Answer: Option 'd' is correct.
Explanation:
Since we have given that
Number of fish caught = 100
Number of tagged fish in catch = 24
So, total number of the fish in the pond is given by
Number of fish caught + Number of tagged fish in catch
=100 +24
= 124
So, the best estimate to find the number of fish in the pond is 124.
Hence, Option 'd' is correct.
