Question

Evan randomly selects 30 marbles from a bag. His data is given in the table.

Answer 1

The probability of selecting a yellow marble is #of yellow marbles/total # of marbles= 6/30 or .2 or 20%

If there are 300 marbles in the bag, a good estimate for the total number of red marbles in the bag is 90.

9/30=.3 = the percentage of red marbles
.3(300) = 90
