A jar contains 8 red marbles, 10 blue marbles, and 2 yellow marbles. One marble is chosen at random. The color is recorded in the table and then it is returned to the jar. This is repeated 40 times. Based on this data, what color marble is likely to be chosen next? Why?

There is a total of 20 marbles. The odds are that red would be pulled 16 times, blue 20 times and the yellow 4 times. Dunno if this will help
