how would i solve this?

In order to solve this you, since only 10% energy goes goes up the each trophic level, you should multiply the original amount of energy by 10% each time you go up a trophic level. A short cut would be to take off one zero of the original amount, in this case 8,000 kj, each tropical level. The answer to this question is that the coyotes will get 80 kj of energy.
