    The expected value of one draw is the average value of these 10 slips of paper which is:

    24 / 10 = 2.4

    Step-by-step explanation:

    We have a bag with 10 slips of paper in it. 8 slips of paper each has a 2 on them; 2 slips of paper each has a 4 on them.

    The total value of all the slips when added together is:

    = (8) (2) + (2) (4)

    = 16 + 8 = 24

    The expected value of one draw is the average value of these 10 slips of paper which is:

    24 / 10 = 2.4 ...
