Question

HELP BRAINLIEST UP FOR GRABS Jenny has some tiles in a bag. The tiles are of three different colors: purple, pink, and orange. Jenny randomly pulls a tile out of the bag, records the color, and replaces the tile in the bag. She does this 50 times. The results are recorded in the given table: Color of Tile Purple Pink Orange Number of times the tile is drawn 6 18 26 What is the experimental probability that Jenny will pull out a purple tile? fraction 6 over 50 fraction 44 over 50 fraction 6 over 44 fraction 18 over 44

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Thank you for providing the details of the question.

Unfortunately none of the results you have to choose from will give you 44%

The problem resembles the first probability question you were likely asked. "What is the probability of getting a heads on every throw of a fair coin?" The answer is 1/2 no matter how many times you throw the coin or what has happened before any point in the throws.

The answer should be 6/50.  If this turns out not to be the answer and you have an instructor your safest course of action is to ask how 44% was obtained. Tell me in a comment.

Answer 2

Answer:

fraction 6 over 50

Step-by-step explanation:

In the question it says she pulls a tile out of the bag and records the color 50 times which means she pulled out 50 tiles.

Now the table says that she recorded 6 purple tiles.

Probability is equal to $\frac{number of favorable outcomes}{number of possible outcomes}$

Number of favorable outcomes here is the number of purple tiles she pulled out (6) since we want to find the probability of choosing a purple tile and the number of possible outcomes is the total number of tiles she pulled out (50)

So the probability = $\frac{6}{50}$
