I need help with this problem plz help

Answer 1

Blue is 16.6667%

Green is 21.875%

Yellow is 28.5714%

Red is 10.7143%

Explanation:

Set up a ratio for each amount to the total, make it a fraction, simplify or try to get to 100 with a common factor, and convert to a decimal.

Answer 2

Part A)
`(5)/(25) or (1)/(5)`

Part B)
`(10)/(25) or (2)/(5)`

Part C)
`(20)/(25) or (4)/(5)`

Explanation:

First of all, the total number of tiles is 25.

For part A, all you need to do is make a fraction, like this:

# of blue tiles

# of total tiles

Now, make your fraction.

`(5)/(25)` =
`(1)/(5)`

So, the probability is 5/25 or 1/5.

For part B, they are asking for both green and red. So, add the number of both green and red together, and put them as a fraction like this:

# of green and blue tiles

# of total tiles

Make your fraction.

`(3+7)/(25) = (10)/(25) = (2)/(5)`

So, the probability is 10/15 or 2/5.

For part C, they are asking for all the colors except blue. So, add all colors (red, green, yellow) together, and put them as a fraction like this:

# of red, green, yellow tiles

# of total tiles

Make your fraction.

`(7+10+3)/(25) = (20)/(25) = (4)/(5)`

So, the probability is 20/25 or 4/5.

Hope this helps!
