Did open the drawer containing t-shirts. There are five white t-shirts, three blue t-shirts, two red t-shirt, and two gray t-shirts. If Jed picks a shirt at random what is the probability he will pick a white or a blue shirt? *

Answer:

8 out of 12

Or

2 out of 3

Explanation:

Since you're asking for the probability of picking either shirt, you'd add the amounts of both white and blue shirts, then add the total amount of shirts together to get the whole.
