Question

Tiles with numbers 1 through 9 are placed in a bag. What is the probability of choosing an even number that is greater than or equal to 4? 1/9, 2/9, 3/9 or 4/9

Answer 1

3/9

Explanation:

Okay, first let's list all the numbers between 1 and 9

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9

Now let's list all of the even numbers from the previous list

2, 4, 6, 8

Now let's list all of the numbers from the previous list that are equal to, or greater than, 4

4, 6, 8

That's only three potential numbers, out of a total of nine numbers

So it's a 3/9 chance
