Answer:

3/7 and 4/17

a) given that Shen is playing a game and the probability of unlocking the treasure test is 3/10.

To find the odds in favour of his character unlocking the treasure chest.

Since probability = 3/10 we have favourable and total are in the ratio 3:10

i.e. favourable:Favourable+unfavourable= 3:3+7

Hene odds= favourable:unfavourable =3/7

Answer is 3/7

b) Given that odds against choosing a blue block are 13/4

This means there are 4 blue blocks and 13 other colour blocks.

Total blocks= 13+4 =17

No of blue blocks = 4

Probability of selecting blue block=4/17
