This one can be tricky. Do it one step at a time.
4 owls plus the couple (mom and dad) make how many?
Each owl eats up to 3 rodents per day.
There are 7 days in a week.
There are 7 weeks in the baby owls' maturing period.
rodents may be eaten by this family alone!
OK, you're right. Baby owls probably won't eat 3 rodents per day.
Why don't you figure the problem out again using
a number of 1 or 2 rodents per day? What do you get?
