How many Symbolic Butterflies do you think are flying to Mexico this year?

We think about 44,000 symbolic butterflies are migrating to Mexico this year. We used estimation to come up with this answer. First we rounded the number of butterflies in the 14.75 pound box to 2000. Then we used this number while looking at the other box weights to come up with our total.
