Answer: A. The probability of drawing a red tile is 36% and the probability of NOT drawing a red tile is 64%

Explanation:

Number of red tiles = 9

Number of blue files = 10

Number of green tiles = 6

Total number of tiles = 9 + 10 + 6 = 25

Probability of drawing red tile = 9/25 = 0.36 = 36%

Probability of drawing blue tile= 10/25 = 0.40 = 40%

Probability of drawing green tile = 6/25 = 0.24 = 24%

Based on the explanation above, the correct answe is option A "The probability of drawing a red tile is 36% and the probability of NOT drawing a red tile is 64%".
