Respuesta :
Andre and his dad have been fishing for 2 hours. In that time, they have caught 9 blue gills and 1 yellow perch. How many total fish are there?
There are 10 total fish. We are looking at how many fish there are, so we need to add 9 + 1 to get our answer of 10 fish.
The next time Andre gets a bite, what kind of fish do you think it would be?
My prediction is that it will be a blue gill.
How do you know your prediction is more likely to happen?
9 out of 10 times, they have caught a blue gill. This is more probable than 1 out of 10.
Can you make any other predictions?
I would say that Andre will catch less yellow perches than blue gills. This is because the probability of catching a blue gill is greater than catching a yellow perch. I would also say that Andre will catch 5 fish per hour, since he caught 10 fish in 2 hours.
