Answer:

Fractional: 3/10

Percentage: 30%

Explanation:

There are 3 blue marbles, and 10 marbles in all.

3/10 is your fractional chance of drawing a blue.

Probability usually asks for percentage, so you should also have the percentage. To do so, divide, then move the decimal point to the right 2 place values, and add a percentage:

3/10 = 0.3 = 30%

30% is your answer.
