Question

he probability that a blue marble will be selected from a bag containing 9 red marbles, 6 blue marbles, 7 green marbles, and 11 yellow marbles if one is selected randomly?

Answer 1

27
`(3)/(11)`%

Explanation:

To find the probability of something, we can present the number of correct possible outcomes to the total possible outcomes.

Correct possible outcomes = 6

Total possible outcomes = 9 + 6 + 11

= 22

Probability of selecting blue =
`(6)/(22)`

=
`(3)/(11)`

= 27
`(3)/(11)`%
