Kimberly, this is the solution to questions 7 and 8:

7. As you can see, we have:

• 4 Grey cars

,

• 3 Black cars

,

• 1 Red car

,

• 2 Blue cars

,

• 1 White car

Therefore, we have 11 cars in total and the probability that a person drove by in a blue car is 2/11

8. Other than black or white are:

• 4 Grey cars

,

• 1 Red car

,

• 2 Blue cars

Therefore, we have 7 cars in total that have a different color than black or white and the probability is 7/11.
