• There are probably more blue markers than any other color.

• There are probably more purple markers than red markers.

• There are probably less green marker than blue markers.

• There are probably less blue markers than any other color.

Mr. Coffey has a basket full of fruit. Each of the 20 students in his class selects one piece of fruit from the basket without looking and puts it back in the basket. Based on the results shown, what can the students conclude about the probability of selecting an apple?

• There are no apples in the basket.

• There is about a 25% chance a student picks a fruit from the basket.

• It is more likely to pick an apple than it is to pick a pear.

• It is equally likely that a student will pick an apple.

The probability model based on experimental probability for randomly selecting a marble from a bag is P(green) = $\frac{18}{40}$ , P(blue) = $\frac{14}{40}$ , and P(white) = $\frac{8}{40}$ . If there are 60 total marbles in the bag, how many would you expect to be white?

An arts and craft supply store has a large crate that contains copper, brass, and silver beads. Several friends take turns picking a bead, recording the bead type, and placing the bead back into the crate. Based on the table, find P(copper) in simplest form.

• $\frac{6}{25}$

• $\frac{4}{30}$

• $\frac{2}{5}$

• $\frac{9}{25}$
