Answer:

60 times

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a total of 5+6+7+3+4=25 marbles

Out of those 25 marbles, 5 are red.

Since there would be a 5/25=1/5 chance of selecting a red marble one time, then we can set up a proportion to find out how many red marbles Taylor will select out of 300 marbles.

1/5=x/300

(1)(300)=(5)(x)

300=5x

60=x

x=60

Therefore, using a probability model for this experiment, Taylor would pick up a red marble 60 times if she chooses a marble 300 times.
