Question

A gum ball machine has 6 red gum balls, 3 green gum balls, and 5 blue gum balls. What is the probability that the next gum ball that comes out will be red?

Answer 1

Explanation:

P(red gum ball)= 6/14=3/7

6/14 can be simplified to 3/7 by dividing by 2. 6/2=3. 14/2=7.

P(red gum ball)=3/7
