The probability of drawing a yellow marble from the bag is 2/5. If you draw from the bag 150 times with replacement, the expected number of yellow marbles you would get is:
Expected value = probability of yellow marble x number of draws
Expected value = (2/5) x 150
Expected value = 60
Therefore, the answer is B. You would expect to draw 60 yellow marbles.
