Alice Lyons · Answer 1

The answer is B 36 because the chance of you grabbing a white or black is 12/15 meaning if you pulled 15 marbles, most likely 12 of them are white or black. so, because 15 goes into 45 3 times, you multiply 12/15 by 3 getting 36 / 45 meaning you will mostly pull 26 black or white marbles.
