Daniel had a small bag of erasers. The bag contained 15 blue, 10 purple, 8 yellow, 13 green, and 4 red erasers. He picked one of the erasers from the bag. What is the probability that Daniel picked a purple eraser?

Answer:

1/5

Explanation:

Add all the erasers together to get 50 in total. Then, take your 10 purple erasers and divide it by 50 to get 1/5. Hope that helps!
