Question

A bag contains an equal number of blue, green, pink, and red balls. If a ball is chosen at random 160 times, with replacement, predict the number of times the ball would be the color red.​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Any one color would be 1/4 of the total. So the number of times you should get red is 1/4 of 160 = 40

Notice that this very odd problem does not depend on what the total is. It only depends on the number of times you make the draw. Unusual question.
