Find the probability A bag contains 6 red marbles, 8 blue marbles, and 9 green marbles. What is the probability of choosing a blue marble?

Answer is in a box.

The bag contains 6 red marbles, 8 blue marbles and 9 green marbles, that is 23 marbles.

The probability that one of the 23 marbles will be picked is 1 or 100%, we are picking a marble for sure.

So what is the probability you will pick for example one of the 6 red marbles? It is 6 out of 23 but since we need percentages multiply by 100,

The probability to pick a blue marble is,

And the probability to pick a green marble is,

To check that everything is right you can sum all the probabilities; the probability that it will be either red, blue or green is 100% so the individual probabilities must sum to 100%, and they do,

Hope this helps :)

answer: 1) twenty-seven times y

              2) twenty-seven multiplied by y

start with a line segment pq that we will copy. mark a point r that will be one endpoint of the new line segment. set the compasses' point on the point p of the line segment to be copied. adjust the compasses' width to the point q. the compasses' width is now equal to the length of the line segment pq.
