Question

Mia recorded the hair colors of the people who have already taken their seats at a seminar.

brown 2
black 6
red
3
gray
1
Considering this data, how many of the next 16 people to take their seats should you expect
to be black-haired?

Answer 1

8 people

(Let me know if there are any mistakes or anything I would add to the answer.)

Explanation:

Based on the data Mia recorded, 6 out of 12 people had black hair, so if the next 16 people take their seats, 8 of them should have black hair. 6 out of 12 is half, and 8 is half of 16.
