Question

A bag contains 4 brown marbles,3 green marbles,2 red marbles and 1 purple marble.Calulate the probability of drawing each color, and write each answer as a fraction as a percent and as a decimal

Answer 1

Answer:The possible outcome would be 10, because 4 brown marbles + 2 red marbles + 1 purple marble+3 green marbles = 10 outcomes!

Answer 2

Probability states the ratio of number of favorable outcomes to the total number of possible outcomes.

i.e,
`probability = (Number of favourable outcomes )/(Total number of possible outcomes)`

A bag contains:

Brown marble = 4

Green marbles = 3

Red marbles = 2

Purple marble = 1

Total number of possible outcomes = (4+3+2+1) = 10 marbles

P(Brown marbles) =
`(4)/(10)=(2)/(5) = 40\% = 0.4`

P(Green marbles) =
`(3)/(10) = 30\% = 0.3`

P(Red marbles) =
`(2)/(10)=(1)/(5) = 20\% = 0.2`

and

P(Purple marbles) =
`(1)/(10)= 10\% = 0.1`
