Answer:

The probability of choosing a green shirt is 20%=1/5=.2

Explanation:

find the total amount = 10

Find the total of question (probability of choosing green) = 2

set as a fraction:

Numerator = amount needed (2)

Denominator = all things/objects involved (10)

PS*

With probability there is a good chance the answer is going to be less than 1 or 100%, knowing that can help to tell which number goes in what place of the fraction

ex:

10/2=5=500% (this can't be the answer)

So Flip it 2/10=.2=20% (This seems more of a reasonable answer)
