Question

A bag contained 4 red tiles,9 yellow tiles, 8 blue tiles,7 green tiles, and 10 purple tiles.

Answer 1

5/19

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of marbles in the bag

= 4+9+8+7+10

=38

Number of purple tiles in the bag = 10

Therefore, the theoretical probability of drawing a purple tile is:

`\begin{gathered} =(10)/(38) \\ =(5)/(19) \end{gathered}`

Note: We do not use the values in the table, that will be the experimental probability.
