Heather has a bag of 15 red, 7 orange, 9 yellow, 12 green, 6 blue and 11 purple markers. How many times would you expect Heather to pick a red marker if she picked a marker 180 times? ​

Answer:

45 times

Explanation:

15 red out of 60 total markers

15/60=0.25

180 x 0.25 = 45

Thus, she will pick a red marker 45 times
