Question

A bag contains a collection of

metal shapes. There are 11
hexagon, 12 trapezoid, 7 triangle,
and 6 square shapes. What is the
probability of randomly selecting
a trapezoid or square?

Answer 1

I haven't learned this in a long time so not sure if I am typing this correctly. But it would be more probable to pick up a trapezoid than a square. I hope that helps. I have a great night!

Answer 2

Answer: Square: 6/36 = 1/6 Trapezoid: 12/36 = 1/3

Explanation:

So for squares we have 6, so theoretically if we add them all together and have 6 squares we would get 6/36 because we have 36 shapes and 6 squares, same goes for trapezoid 12 and 36 shaped in total 12/36.
