Question

There are 10 girls and 5 boys in Ms. Sander's class. Each day, she randomly asks one student to take attendance. In 180 school days, which is the best prediction for the number of times that the student will be a girl?

Answer 1

120

Explanation:

The probability of a girl being picked one day = 10/15 = 2/3

Total number of days = 180

Therefore, the nunber of times it will be a girl = 2/3 x 180 = 2 x 60 = 120

Hope this helps
