[tex]${ }^{\ \textless \ /strong\ \textgreater \ }$[/tex] Multiply the food percentage for each flock by the total number of birds (30).

Let's solve this step-by-step:

1. Find the Food Percentage for Flock X:
The total pieces of food eaten is 300. Flock X has eaten 147 pieces of food. To find the percentage of food eaten by Flock X, we use the formula:
[tex]\[ \text{Food Percentage for Flock X} = \left( \frac{\text{Food Eaten by Flock X}}{\text{Total Food Eaten}} \right) \times 100 \][/tex]
[tex]\[ \text{Food Percentage for Flock X} = \left( \frac{147}{300} \right) \times 100 = 49\% \][/tex]

2. Verify Food Percentage for Flock Y:
It is given that the food percentage for Flock Y is already 7%.

3. Find the Food Percentage for Flock Z:
Flock Z has eaten 60 pieces of food. Using the same formula, we find the percentage of food eaten by Flock Z.
[tex]\[ \text{Food Percentage for Flock Z} = \left( \frac{60}{300} \right) \times 100 = 20\% \][/tex]

Now, the table with the Food Percentages filled in looks like this:

[tex]\[ \begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|c|} \hline & \text{Flock X} & \text{Flock Y} & \text{Flock Z} \\ \hline \begin{tabular}{l} Total Pieces of Food Eaten \\ \text{(from previous page)} \end{tabular} & 147 & 93 & 60 \\ \hline \text{Food Percentage} & 49\% & 7\% & 20\% \\ \hline \begin{tabular}{l} Simulated Number of Birds in Flock \\ for 3rd Generation \end{tabular} & & & $\square$ \\ \hline \end{tabular} \][/tex]

4. Simulated Number of Birds in Flock Z for the Third Generation:
To find the simulated number of birds in Flock Z, we multiply the food percentage for each flock by the total number of birds (30):
[tex]\[ \text{Simulated Number of Birds in Flock Z} = \left( \frac{\text{Food Percentage Z}}{100} \right) \times \text{Total Number of Birds} \][/tex]
[tex]\[ \text{Simulated Number of Birds in Flock Z} = \left( \frac{20}{100} \right) \times 30 = 6 \][/tex]

Finally, the completed table will look like this:

[tex]\[ \begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|c|} \hline & \text{Flock X} & \text{Flock Y} & \text{Flock Z} \\ \hline \begin{tabular}{l} Total Pieces of Food Eaten \\ \text{(from previous page)} \end{tabular} & 147 & 93 & 60 \\ \hline \text{Food Percentage} & 49\% & 7\% & 20\% \\ \hline \begin{tabular}{l} Simulated Number of Birds in Flock \\ for 3rd Generation \end{tabular} & & & 6 \\ \hline \end{tabular} \][/tex]
