Question

You choose a marble at random from a bag containing 2 red marbles, 4 green marbles and and 3 blue marbles. Find the odds in favor of green

Answer 1

First let's find the total number of marbles:

`2+4+3=9`

Then, to find the probability of a green marble being selected, we just need to divide the number of green marbles by the total number of marbles:

`P_{\text{green}}=(4)/(9)=0.4444=44.44\text{\%}`
