Q. Jose is going to use a random number generator 500500 times. Each time he uses it, he will get a 1,2,3 1,2,3 , or 44 .\newlineComplete the following statement with the best prediction.\newlineJose will get something other than a 2… 2 \ldots \newlineChoose 11 answer:\newline(A) Exactly 250250 times\newline(B) Close to 250250 times but probably not exactly 250250 times\newline(C) Exactly 375375 times\newline(D) Close to 375375 times but probably not exactly 375375 times\
  1. Understand the problem: Understand the problem.\newlineJose is using a random number generator that produces the numbers 11, 22, 33, or 44 with equal probability. We need to predict how many times he will get a number other than 22 in 500500 trials.
  2. Calculate probability: Calculate the probability of getting a number other than 22. Since there are 44 possible outcomes and only one of them is the number 22, the probability of getting a number other than 22 is 33 out of 44, or 34\frac{3}{4}.
  3. Predict number of times: Use the probability to predict the number of times Jose will get a number other than 22.\newlineTo find the expected number of times Jose will get a number other than 22, multiply the total number of trials by the probability of getting a number other than 22.\newline500500 trials ×(34)=375\times (\frac{3}{4}) = 375 times
  4. Choose best answer: Choose the best answer based on the prediction.\newlineThe calculation shows that the expected number of times Jose will get a number other than 22 is 375375. However, since random chance is involved, it is unlikely to be exactly 375375 times. Therefore, the best prediction is that it will be close to 375375 times but probably not exactly 375375 times.
