If you’re good with probability in math 30 please help and answer the question below!!

a bag contains 8 green marbles, five white marbles, and two red marbles. what is the probability of drawing the complement of a red marble from the bag?

a) 1/15

b) 2/13

c) 2/15

d) 13/15

Answer 1

Answer: d) 13/15

Explanation:

Complement of red marbles means NOT red marbles.

The marbles that are not red: 8 green, 5 white

`\frac{\text{Quantity that are NOT red}}{Total\ marbles}\quad =(8+5)/(15)\quad =\large\boxed{(13)/(15)}`
