Question

A bag of marbles contains 6 yellow marbles, 4 blue marbies, and 2 orange marbles. Ben decides to pick a

marble without looking, What is the probablity that he picks an orange marble?

Answer 1

`\frac{1}6}` probability

Explanation:

Total number of marbles in the bag: 6 + 4 + 2 = 12 marbles

Number of orange marbles = 2

=> Probability of picking an orange marble =
`(2)/(12)` =
`\frac{1}6}` (fraction) or 0.166
