Answer:

have a good day/night may i please have a branllist

Explanation:

1/3

There is 21 marbles and if you divided by 3 it gets 7.

7/21 is equal to 1/3

Therefore the possibility of picking a blue marble is 1/3.

there are an equal amount of all three colors of marbles in the bag, so the probability of selecting a blue marble is just 1/3.

Total marbles: 7 + 7 + 7 + 7 = 28

There is a total of 28 marbles. 7 are blue.

The probability is the number of blue/ total marbles = 7/28 which reduces to 1/4

The probability is 1/4
