PLS HELP!!! URGENT

Rosa has 15 red, 11 orange, 9 yellow, 12 green, 6 blue, and 11 purple pencils in her backpack. About how many times would you expect Rosa to pick a purple pencil if she picked a pencil at random 50 times? Round the the nearest whole number

Answer 1

8 times

Explanation:

15+11+9+12+6+11=64

11 out of 64 is purple

so ?:50

11:64

do the ratio:

64/1.28=50

11/1.28=8.59375

So Rosa would pick it about 8 times
