    To make a reasonable prediction, you can create a proportion using the ratio of green beads to total beads and make it equal to x green out of 150 trials.

    green 6 x

    total 20 = 150; use cross products to solve for x green beads.

    15 x 6 = 20x

    900 = 20x

    20 20

    x = 45 green

    A reasonable prediction would be 45 green beads based on theoretical probability.
