Question

There are 6 pencils in a box. 3 of the pencils are red, 2 are blue and 1 is green. A pencil is taken out of the box without looking. What is the probability that the pencil is blue?

Answer 1

2/6 = 2 pencils are blue, 6 pencils are in total
1/3 = the probability of picking a blue pencil

Hope it helped!

Answer 2

`(2)/(6)=(1)/(3)`
