Given the following question:

We are given 20 marbles 4 red, and 16 blue.

We have a low chane of pulling a red marble speaking how s75% of the 20 marbles are blue and 25% ofthe marbles is red. Which means tthe likelihood of drawing a red marble out of a bag that contains 4 red marbles and 16 blue is 25% so relatively low.

To find the percent:


\begin{gathered} (4)/(16)*100 \\ 4/16=0.25 \\ 0.25*100=25 \\ =25per \end{gathered}
