Answer:

Sophia will draw a purple marble Close to 120 times but probably not exactly 120 times

Explanation:

Sophia has a bag with 3 purple marbles and 4 blue marbles in it

purple marbles = 3

blue marbles = 4

Total marbles = 3 + 4 = 7

Probability of purple marbles = 3/7

probability of Blue Marbles = 4/7

if 280 times , a marble is drawn

then chances of purple marbles = (3/7) 280 = 120

chances of blue marbles = (4/7) 280 = 160

Sophia will draw a purple marble Close to 120 times but probably not exactly 120 times
