Question

There are 500 fish in the pond. You randomly select 10 fish and get 4 goldfish , 2 striped fish, 2 black fish, and 2 white fish Use experimental probability to predict how many fish in the pond are: a . Goldfish b. Striped . Black d . White

Answer 1

a. 200, b. 100 c. 100. c. 100

Explanation:

to predict the total number of fish, you must add up all of the predicted so far. in this case, it gives you 10

then you need to divide 500 by 10

this gives you 50

now you know that each fish represents 50 fish in total.

so to find the totals, just multiply each value by 50!
