3. a basket of beads contains 8 red beads, 6 yellow beads, and 6 green beads. a bead will be drawn from the basket and replaced 150 times. what is a reasonable prediction for the number of times a green bead is drawn?\na. 45\nb. 60\nc. 36\nd. 72

Answer

Explanation:

Step 1: Calculate total number of beads

$8 + 6 + 6 = 20$

Step 2: Determine probability of drawing a green bead

$\frac{6}{20} = \frac{3}{10}$

Step 3: Predict number of green beads in 150 draws

$150 \times \frac{3}{10} = 45$

Answer:

A. 45
