A bag has 5 yellow marbles, 3 red marbles, and 2 blue marbles. Quinn randomly picks a marble from the bag and returns it before another is picked. How many times would Quinn expect to a blue marble if he picks a marble 200 times

Answer:

40 blue marbles

Explanation:

You would find the probability of a blue marble

2 blue/ ( 5+3+2) total

2 divided by 10 is 1/5

Then, you multiply 200 and 1/5 together, which would equal 40.

Quinn should expect to pick 40 blue marbles.
