Answer:

94, 956

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that of the 97221 adult penguins in the island, 97.67% of them being Adélie penguins then it means to get the actual number of Adélie penguins will be rhe product of percentage and the total population.

Therefore, Adélie penguins will be

[tex]\frac {97.67}{100}\times 97221=94,955.7507[/tex]

Since Adélie penguins can't be in decimal, this is rounded off to be 94, 956

Therefore, the number is 94, 956
