A student wants to assess whether her dog Muffin tends to chase her blue ball more often than she chases her red ball. The student rolls both a blue ball and a red ball at the same time and observes which ball Muffin chooses to chase. Repeating this process a total of 96 times, the student finds that Muffin chased the blue ball 52 times and the red ball 44 times.
