Answer:
Proportion of blue marbles in in sample = 9/40
Step-by-step explanation:
Total number of blue marbles in a jar is given by 25%
Lets find the probability of blue marble in the jar of the given sample:
Proportion of blue marbles in in sample = Total number of blue marbles in sample/ Total number of marbles in sample
Where
Total number of blue marbles in sample = 9
Total number of marbles in sample = 9 + 15 + 16
Total number of marbles in sample = 40
SO
Proportion of blue marbles in in sample = 9/40
or
Proportion of blue marbles in in sample = 9/40
