Answer: 10

Explanation:

A sample space refers to the set of the outcomes that are possible during an experiment. It should be noted that the sample space is typically represented by using the symbol, ā€œSā€.

For example, in a random experiment that involves throwing a coin, the results is either the head or tail, therefore, the sample space is 2. In this case, the sample space will be:

= 1 Yellow + 2 blue + 3 red + 4 green

= 10
