A baq of 60 marbles has 8 red, 9 blue, 10 orange, and 33 green marbles. In drawing a marble
from the bag 100 times, an orange marble was picked 13 times. What was the likelihood of
an orange marble being picked? Is this more or lessthan the actual number?
To calculate the likelihood or probability of an event, we need to divide the number of favorable outcomes (the event of interest) by the total number of possible outcomes.
In this case, we are interested in the probability of picking an orange marble from a bag containing 60 marbles. The bag has a total of 8 red + 9 blue + 10 orange + 33 green = 60 marbles.
The number of times an orange marble was picked in 100 draws is given as 13. So, the probability of picking an orange marble is 13/100, which can be simplified to 0.13 or 13%.
Now, to determine if this probability is more or less than the actual number, we need to compare it to some expected value.
Unfortunately, the question does not explicitly mention the expected number of orange marbles to be picked. Without this information, we cannot determine if the observed probability is more or less than expected. We can only calculate the probability based on the given data.
