Question

A bag has 2 baseballs (B), 5 tennis ball (T), and 3 whiffle balls (W)

What is the probability of pulling out a baseball? Enter the answer in this order: reduced fraction, decimal, and then percent.

This is an example of what type of probability? (Experimental, Theoretical, or Subjective)

In this case, choosing a baseball is the what?

Answer 1

Explanation:

baseballs 2

tennis ball 5

whiffle balls 3

Total balls = 10

The probability of pulling out a baseball is the number of baseball divided by the total number of balls.

Therefore

Probability of pulling out a baseball = 2/10 = 1/5

1/5 = 0.2

Percent = 2/10 × 100% = 20%

Answers :

Reduced fraction = 1/5

Decimal = 0.2

Percent = 20%
