Question

Different names are written onto sticks and placed into a cup. A

stick is chosen 100 times, out of which Lyla's name is chosen 23
times. Based on the results, how many times should Lyla expect her
name to be drawn if 320 sticks are drawn?

Answer 1

73.6 (or actually 74 - you can't have 0.6 times)

Explanation:

here, you're effectively just multiplying fractions.

it is 23/100 that were drawn but 320 is 3.2 X 100 so all you have to do is multiply 23 by 3.2 which is 73.6
