Question

kimora keeps 160 beads in a storage box. she chooses a bead without looking, notes what color it is, and returns it to the box. she does this several times. the table shows the results. kimora’s niece wants to get her hair done with green beads. based on the table, predict the number of green beads in kimora’s storage box. green beads an error has occurred. please enter a number. first find the experimental probability of picking a green bead using the results in the table. then use it to predict the number of green beads among the 160 beads in kimora’s storage box. bead color frequency purple 11 green 9 black 20

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate total trials

$11 + 9 + 20 = 40$

Step2: Find experimental probability

$\text{Probability (green)} = \frac{9}{40}$

Step3: Predict green bead count

$160 \times \frac{9}{40} = 36$

Answer:

36 green beads
