Question

A bag contains 25 red cubes, 15 green cubes, 12 blue cubes, and 8 yellow cubes. The cube is picked at random from the bag. Find each probability as a fraction is lowest terms

Answer 1

25/70=red cubes

15/70=green cubes

12/70=blue cubes

8/70=yellow cubes

Explanation:

you have to add up all the cubes together and get 70 so you have to see the possibility of getting each cube from the bag.

sorry if you get this wrong

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation: Alright so first add up how many cubes there are in total - 25 + 15 + 12+ 8 = 60. Then, each color cube is its number out of 60. So, for example, for 25 red cubes, it would be 25/60 as a fraction and that’s the probability as a fraction for the red cubes. So:

red = 25/60

green = 15/60

blue = 12/60

yellow = 8/60

then simply the fractions.

25/60 —> 5/12

15/60 —> 1/4

12/60 —> 1/5

8/60 —> 2/15

I hope that helped!
