There are only blue yellow and green cubes is a bag. There are three times as many blue cubes as yellow cubes. There are five times as many green cubes as blue cubes. I take out a random cube from the bag, what is the probability that I take out a yellow cube?

Let the number of yellow cubes be x

Yellow Cubes = x

Blue Cubes = 3x

Green = 5 (3x) = 15x

Ratio : Yellow : Blue : Green = 1 : 3 : 15

P(Yellow) = 1/19

Answer: 1/19
