Chapter 15.1, Problem 5P

There is a bowl containing 300 plastic tiles. Some of the tiles are yellow and the rest are blue. You take a random sample of 10 tiles and find that 2 are yellow and 8 are blue. How many yellow tiles are there? Write three different expressions A ⋅ B for the number of yellow tiles you predict there are based on the random sample, where A andB are numbers derived from among 300, 10, 2, and 8. Explain each expression in detail in terms of quantities in the situation. Support your explanations with math drawings.
