You would like to estimate American cockroach population in the cafeteria of your college. You placed glass jar traps at various locations at the cafeteria and collected them after three days. In the first trapping, you caught 307 cockroaches (alive:299 and remaining died). You marked them,and released them back into the original population. At the second trapping, 441 cockroaches were trapped (but 5% are dead). Of this number, a total of 35 cockroaches (alive; 25. dead;10) were marked. By using Lincoln index, estimate the population size of cockroaches in the mentioned cafeteria..

P/S :: If there's any web of lincoln index questions and answers, can you please share with me..?

THANK YOU IN ADVANCE..!!!
