Probability Challenge
- Ruthie put five pieces of two types of candy (candy corn and chocolate kisses) in a
lunch bag. Each time she pulled out a candy, Max would mark down the kind of
candy it was. Then Ruthie would put the candy back into the bag and pull out
another one. When they quit, the tally count looked like this:
candy corn = 16
chocolate kisses = 3
If there are only five candies in the bag, which candies do you think there
are more of? Use a number sentence to describe the number of each kind of candy.
For example,
_ candy corn +
__ chocolate kisses = 5 candies. Tell why
you think your number sentence is probably correct.
