Bowls A and B contain a number of white balls.if there are 36 balls in bowl A estimate the number of white balls based on Simon result.
Bowl A white balls 5, Bowl B white balls 16
Bowl A red balls 15, Bowl B red balls 4.
Unfortunately, Simon's result is not given so we cannot estimate the number of white balls based on his result.
To estimate the number of white balls in Bowl A based on Simon's result, we need to compare the proportions of white balls in both bowls.
First, let's find the total number of balls in Bowl B:
Total balls in Bowl B = Bowl B white balls + Bowl B red balls = 16 + 4 = 20 balls.
Next, we compare the proportions of white balls in both bowls:
Proportion of white balls in Bowl B = Bowl B white balls / Total balls in Bowl B = 16 / 20 = 0.8.
Proportion of white balls in Bowl A = 5 / (5 + 15) = 5 / 20 = 0.25.
Now, we can estimate the number of white balls in Bowl A based on Simon's result:
Estimated number of white balls in Bowl A = Proportion of white balls in Bowl A / Proportion of white balls in Bowl B * Total balls in Bowl B
Estimated number of white balls in Bowl A = 0.25 / 0.8 * 20
Estimated number of white balls in Bowl A ≈ 0.31 * 20 ≈ 6.2.
Therefore, based on Simon's result, the estimated number of white balls in Bowl A is approximately 6.2.
