A piggy bank contains 100 pennies, 100 dimes, 100 nickels, and 100 quarters—all mixed together. Which situation shows the appropriate use of the law of large numbers? David draws a coin from the bank 499 times with replacement. Since he got 124 nickels, he predicts he will get a nickel on his next draw. Shawna draws a coin from the bank 160 times with replacement. She predicts getting a quarter about 40 times. Julie draws a coin from the bank 200 times without replacement. She predicts getting about 50 dimes. Enzo draws a coin from the bank 600 times with replacemen
any ideas?
none .... im completely lost
use ratio, then reduce
you know you have 400 coins in all, so ?:400
100:400 pennies 100:400 nickels 100:400 dimes 100:400 quaters
reduced would be 1: 4 pennies 1: 4 nickels 1: 4 dimes 1: 4 quaters
so they all have 1/4 chance of getting each of them liek @ShadowCain said
i would say C makes the most sense but im not sure
