hard question - ArtSmartie6 - 07-31-2024
If a box contains 5 red, 3 blue, and 2 green marbles, what is the probability of picking a blue marble?
RE: hard question - Kevin - 07-31-2024
The total number of marbles is:
5+3+2=10
The probability of picking a blue marble is the number of blue marbles divided by the total number of marbles:
Number of blue marbles/total number of marbles = 3/10
