Question

A hat contains 2 red balls, 3 green balls, and 5 yellow balls. Amanda chooses one ball at random from the hat. What is the probability that Amanda chooses a yellow or green ball?

A) 1/5
B) 4/5
C) 3/10
D) 1/2

Answer 1

B) 4/5

Explanation:

Since there are 10 balls inside the hat, the total is ten. And because there are 3 green balls and 5 yellow ones, 3+5=8. The fraction would be 8/10, but it can simplify to be 4/5.

Hope this helps :)
