Outcome| Number of trials

| 10__50___200

Red | 5___36___152

Purple | 5___14___48

    In total, we have 5+14+48=67 purple balls in 10+50+200=260 trials, so based on our data, purple balls appear with probability 67/260=0.258, so we expect. 258*400=103 purple balls to appear in the larger sample.
