Question

A box contains 100 colored chips; some are violet and some are red. Wilson chooses a chip at random, records the color, and places it back in the bag. Wilson has recorded 9 violet chips and 16 red chips. Using these results, what is the predicted number of violet chips in the box?

Answer 1

Your answer would be 36.

Explanation:

I took the test and got it correct!

Answer 2

36

Explanation:

the prediction is not big enough so there is not enough sample for such prediction. However based on the probability both are equal to 100

We can say convert from 9/16 to 18/32 and again 36/64 and see we have 100 counters when we use this prediction.
