Answer:

32768 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Marbles = 8 marbles

Selection = 5 (with replacement)

Required

Determine the number of ways

Because it is a selection with replacement; each selection is as follows:

[tex]First = 8\ marbles[/tex]

[tex]Second = 8\ marbles[/tex]

[tex]Third= 8\ marbles[/tex]

[tex]Fourth = 8\ marbles[/tex]

[tex]Fifth = 8\ marbles[/tex]

Total number of ways is then calculated as:

[tex]Total = 8 * 8 * 8 * 8 * 8[/tex]

[tex]Total = 32768[/tex]
