Question

in a genetics experiment on peas, one sample of offspring contained 384 green peas and 138 yellow peas. based on those results, estimate the probability of getting an offspring pea that is green. is the result reasonably close to the value of $\frac{3}{4}$ that was expected?
the probability of getting a green pea is approximately
(type an integer or decimal rounded to three decimal places as needed.)

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate total number of peas

Total number of peas = 384 + 138 = 522

Step2: Calculate probability of green pea

Probability of green pea = $\frac{384}{522}\approx 0.736$

Answer:

0.736
