A carnival game has 160 rubber ducks floating in a pool. The person playing the game takes out one duck and looks at it.

If there’s a red mark on the bottom of the duck, the person wins a small prize.

If there’s a blue mark on the bottom of the duck, the person wins a large prize.

Many ducks do not have a mark.

After 50 people have played the game, only 3 of them have won a small prize, and none of them have won a large prize.

Estimate the number of the 160 ducks that you think have red marks on the bottom. Then estimate the number of ducks you think have blue marks. Explain your reasoning. Show all work!
