Answer:

Out of 100 marbles, the number of blue marbles = 40 and the number of red mabrles = 60.

Step-by-step explanation:

Carl asks  Kelley to draw a marble without looking, record the color, and then return the marble  to the bag. Kelley repeats the trial 20 times,

The number of blue marbles = 8

The number of red marbles = 12

The probability of blue marbles in the bag = [tex](\frac{8}{20} )100[/tex] = 40%

The probability of red marbles in the bag = [tex](\frac{12}{20} )100[/tex] = 60%

Since the total number of marbles is 100,

The number of blue marbles = 40% = 40.

The number of red mabrles = 60% = 60.
