Michael is drawing a card from a standard 52-card deck, which includes 4 aces: the ace of clubs, the ace of diamonds, the ace of hearts, and the ace of spades. For each trial, he draws a card, records which cards he drew, and returns it to the deck. He draws an ace 240 times
Of the times he draws an ace, which of the following would be a good estimate for the number of times the ace drawn is the ace of hearts?
Answer:
Explanation:
From the information:
Let consider the following variables,
assume p to be the number of times an ace was drawn,
also, q should be the number of aces and r to be the number of outcomes.
Thus ;
where;
p = 240
q = 4
r = 60
It is literally unlikely that exactly 25% of the drawings are going to be the ace of hearts, therefore, the best answer will be 60 or the value closest to 60
