Question

Marilyn has a bag of coins. The bag contains 25 wheat pennines, 15 Canadian pennies, 5 steel pennies, and 5 Lincoln pennies. She picks a coin randomly from the bag. What is the probability that she picked a steel penny or a lincoln penny? A.) 10% B.) 20% C.) 50% D.) 30%​

Answer 1

a.) 10% is correct. If you add them all together it's 50 pennies. Lincoln and steel pennies equal 10 and 10 of 50 is 10%

Answer 2

25+15+ 5+5= 50. 5+5= 10/50 =.2x100= 20%
