ANSWER :
Shannon has a bag of jelly beans. She removed one jelly bean, recording the color, and then replaced it. She repeated the process several times and record her results in the table. What is the experimental probability of her selecting a red jelly bean?
A. 11/33
B. 1/3
C. 1/4
D. 18/26
EXPLANATION :
There are 11 red jelly beans, so the numerator will be 11. To find the denominator you need to add all the jelly beans (15+11+18=44).
P = 11/44
Then simplify it.
11/44 = 1/4
