Answer:

750 monkeys (probable chance)

Step-by-step explanation:

100 : 50

100 square miles to a 2:1 ratio of 50 monkeys

Simply, insert the new area into the ratio to get the result.

1500 ---> 2:1

1500/2 = 750

1500:750

Thus, there would probably be 750 monkeys inhabiting a 1,500 square mile jungle.
