Question

A bag contains 42 red, 45 green, 20 yellow, and 32 purple candies. You pick one candy at random. Find the probability it is purple or not red.

Answer 1

Answer: there is a 53.24 percent chance.

Step-by-step explanation: Add all of the candies and get 139. Then add 32 and 42 to get 74. Then subtract 74 from 139 and get 65. Finally, you find the percentage of 74/139 and get 53.24.
