Answer:

44 aproximately

Step-by-step explanation:

She puts a tag on 20 of them, the next day she catches 27 and notices 3 of them have a tag so we substract 27-3=24 we add 24 to the initial number of ducks (20) and the result is 44

Step-by-step explanation:

27÷3×20=180

or

3/27=20/n =180

so the numbers of ducks in her local park is 180
