Question

belle is playing a game where the probability of drawing a card with a value greater than 12 is 1/16. If she draws 64 cards throughout the game, which of the following is the best prediction of the number of cards she will draw with a value greater than 12 -> 12-> 3-> 5-> 4

Answer 1

Since the probability of drawing a card with a value greater than 12 is 1/16, in order to predict the number of times we will get cards with a value greater than 12 after drawing 64 cards, we just need to multiply the probability by the number of times it will occur:

$\frac{1}{16}\cdot64=\frac{64}{16}=4$

So we can predict that Belle will draw a card with a value greater than 12 4 times.
