Design and interpret a probability simulation
A target experiment selects one item from a finite population. The category counts are amber: 4, blue: 2, with total 6
The selected item is returned before the next trial. Let \(E\) be the event that the outcome is amber
The target probability is \(\Pr(E)\) = \(\frac{2}{3}\)
The simulation used the following procedure
Use a random-number generator that returns one of the integers 1 to 24 with equal probability
Map outcomes 1 to 16 to amber and outcomes 17 to 24 to blue
Reset the device before the next trial
Treat one complete selection as one trial
Run 1 recorded amber: 12, blue: 3, giving 15 trials in total
