The expected number of M&M's in the bag is 308

How to determine the number of blue pieces?

The parameters that complete the question are:

Number of blue pieces = 4

Total = 15

From the question, the number of blue pieces is:

Blue = 82

Let the total number of M&M be M.

So, we have:

Blue = Number of blue/Total * M

This gives

82 = 4/15 * M

Multiply both sides by 15/4

15/4 * 82 = M

Evaluate

M = 307.5

Approximate

M = 308

Hence, the expected number of M&M's in the bag is 308
