To determine the proportion of white and red balls in each container, Simon and Clark repeatedly selected balls from both containers and recorded the results in a table.
Here is a sample of the results they obtained:
Container A (red balls):
- 1st selection: red
- 2nd selection: red
- 3rd selection: white
- 4th selection: red
Container B (red balls):
- 1st selection: red
- 2nd selection: red
- 3rd selection: red
- 4th selection: red
Based on these results, we can see that Container A had 3 red balls out of 4 selections, while Container B had all 4 red balls out of 4 selections. Therefore, the proportion of red balls in Container A is 3/4 or 75%, and the proportion of red balls in Container B is 100%.
From this experiment, it can be concluded that Container B contains all red balls, while Container A contains a mix of red and white balls.
Pull a and B container number four in red balls Simon and Clark repeatedly selected ball from both balls in record the results in a table results will give you a better indication about the proportion of white and red balls in each bowl. Explain your answer.
