Question

You draw a marble from a bag that has 4 red, 2 blue, and 3 green. What is the probability you will draw a blue marble.

Answer 1

`(2)/(9)` or about 22%

Explanation:

There are 9 marbles in total.

`4 +2 + 3 =9`

There are 2 blue marbles.

`(preferredevents)/(total events) =(2)/(9)=0.2222...`

There is about a 22% chance that you would pick a blue marble.
