As part of the holiday festivities at the office, Jerry's manager fills a large jar with 2,500 foil-
wrapped chocolate candies, a mix of milk chocolate candies wrapped in red foil and dark
chocolate candies wrapped in blue foil. Each employee takes a sample of 20 candies and
counts how many are dark chocolate before returning them to the jar. Then they predict how
many dark chocolate candies are in the entire jar. The employee with the closest prediction
wins an unopened bag of chocolate.
Here are the data from Jerry's sample:
Milk chocolate 13
Dark chocolate 7
Based on the results of the sample, how many dark chocolate candies should Jerry expect to
be in the jar?
dark chocolate candies.
