Question

The 32 students in Ms.Byrd's art class made a project with construction paper. Eleven students used red construction paper, 8 students used green construction paper, and the rest of the students used blue construction paper. If Ms. Byrd chooses one project at random, what is the probability it will be blue? Plz explain and show work.

A. 1/4
B. 11/32
C. 13/32
D.2/3

Answer 1

Answer: The correct answer is C. 13/32

Step-by-step explanation: There are 32 students, and 11 + 8 = 19. SO in order to figure out how many students used blue, we need to subtract 19 from 32. that gives us 13. So:

13 out of 32 students, or

13/32
