Sarah has a bag of 50 skittles, some are red and some are yellow. Sarah randomly pulls a skittle out of the bag and records it, and returns it back to he bag. so far she has recorded 8 reds and 12 yellows. based on these results what is the MOST likely numbers of reds in the bag?

20

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume n is the number of times she pick a skittle out of the bag

The probability she pick out red : 8/n

The probability she pick out yellow : 12/n

=> The ratio of red and yellow skittle : 8/n : 12/n = 8/12 = 2/3, means every 2 red skittles we have 3 yellow ones.

But we have 50 skittles, so the likely numbers of reds in the bag is = 2* = 20

answer:

125 yards

explanation:

75+50=125. that is my answer
