Wheel statistics question regarding frequency.

If i have a wheel with 36 numbers and every day i pick a different random number for 260 days and every day the wheel is spun 50 times, how many times on average will the number randomly chosen on any given day come up over the course of all 260 days?

I'm sorry, I am a marketing manager and math is a weakness.  Not really sure how I would do the arithmetic.  Can you provide a formula of some sort?

You need a scientific calculator.
(35/36)^50 is approximately.25 & I think you should be able to do the subtraction and the multiplication to get the expected # of 196.
