Question

A bag contains 100 chips with 20 blue chips and 80 red chips. Describe an assignment of random digits that can be used to simulate drawing one chip from the bag.

Answer 1

so probablity is (desired outcomes)/(total possibele outcomes)

so let's find the probablities of drawing a blue chip then a red chip

BLUE: desired outcomes=20
total possible=100
probablity=20/100=2/10=1/5

RED: desired outcomes=20
total possible=100
probablity=80/100=8/10=4/5

so it is a probbilty of 1/5 of drawing a blue chip first
it is s probablity of 4/5 of drawing a red chip foirst
