Answer:

7/20 or 35%

Explanation:

add everyones balls together. That's 20. then, angeline has 7 balls, so that's a 7 out of 20 chance. to make it a percent, make the 20 a 100 by multiplying it by 5. since you do that to the 20, u have to do it to the 7. this gives you 35 out of 100 or 35%. I hope this helps
