Q3. What percentage of the total number of marbles in YOUR (Suppose that you belong to any
of these four groups and mention which one) sample was each of the colors? Make a bar chart of
the percentages of each color in your sample. Be sure to label your graph properly in Microsoft
Excel. 
Answer:
In my sample, there were 15.52% of white marbles, 18.23% of purple marbles, 11.08% of blue
marbles, 21.67% of red marbles, 13.3% of green marbles and 20.2% of yellow marbles.

marble. 
Answer:

groups

Q5. If there are 4528 marbles in the large container in the front of the room, a) how many
marbles would you predict would be blue based on your sample, and b) how many marbles
would you predict would be blue based on the average of four groups?
Answer: 
As per given in the question, if there are 4528 marbles in the large container in the front of the
room-
a. Prediction based on my group’s (4 D) sample: (4528 x 11.08%) = 501.70 = 502 marbles
b. Prediction based on average of all five groups: (4528 x 16.83%) = 762.06 = 762 marbles

Q6. If your sample contained 1000 liters of water from Hakaluki Haor and the volume of
Hakaloki Haor is 125,000,000 cubic meters, and each of the marbles represents fish of that color,
how many red fishes would you expect to find in the whole Haor based on your sampling? Be
sure to include your calculations in your answer. 
Answer:
 We know,
1 cubic meter = 1,000 liters

Therefore,
125,000,000 cubic meters = 125,000,000,000 liters

 From my sample, I have found 88 red fishes in 1000 liters.

So I’m expecting to find 88 x 125,000,000,0001000 = 11,000,000,000 fishes in the whole

Hakaluki Haor.
