Question

PLEASE ANSWER At a birthday party 6 girls are wearing blue birthday hats and 6 girls are wearing red birthday hats what's is the probability of 1 of the girls wearing a red birthday hat being randomly chosen to get the first piece of cake?

A 6/12
B 6/6
C 1/6
D 1/12

Answer 1

The answer would be a. Half the girls are wearing blue and half are wearing red so you have a 50% chance of choosing red.

Answer 2

First, we know there are 12 girls because 6+6=12

Then for probability we do the part divided by the whole
# of girls in red hats/total # of girls
SO the answer is 6/12

Hope this helps!
