Let’s check out your problem:

Recently, frogs have been disappearing from the wild due to a contagious fungus. To monitor the current population in a certain region, Ruth collects $85$ frogs, marks them, and releases them. Later, she collects $500$ frogs and finds that $17$ of them are marked. To the nearest whole number, what is the best estimate for the frog population?
