Which of these could you use to simulate the outcome of the results of a spelling bee with 5 participants if each of the people are equally likely to win A using a spinner divided into 5 equal parts B tossing a coin 5 times C drawing, without replacement, from a bag of 5 marbles, each a different color D rolling a die 5 times

KingPizza:

if it helps, I believe it's either A or C

Beta:

Well, I am quite confused on this one; A.) and C.) can be both correct. B.), and D.) is incorrect.

snowflake0531:

Yes it's either A or C If you choose A, you only want to know who might get first place But with C, you're able to get the places of each person, since it's 'drawing without replacement' while A is a spinner, where you could get the same person 5 times in a row So I think i would go with C

Beta:

I see what SnowFlake is saying, I would agree with SnowFlake. Scratch letter 𝘼.)

KingPizza:

oh I thought it was A, well I'll go with Option C now

KingPizza:

yes it's correct thank you

Beta:
