Answer 9

Oh,I didn't know you wanted me to answer.

Answer 10

Will do @Kitt020912

Answer 11

why is it 0/18

Answer 12

Wait, how many purple ones are there?

Answer 13

there 10 purple, 3 green, and 5 red

Answer 14

Yes, and you are asking how many 'will be yellow'

Answer 15

There are only purple,green,and red Skittles in your example - no yellow ones.

Answer 16

O, right. Since there are NO yellow ones...it will be 0. Of course.

Answer 17

*facepalm*

Answer 18

right so no yellow means 0; how did I get 18

Answer 19

3+5+10

Answer 20

so exactly so in your problem 5 + 20 + 30 seconds = 55 seconds

Answer 21

Oh,ok.

Answer 22

So 55 is the denominator and the numerator is?

Answer 23

so then find which ever item you need to find the probability of

Answer 24

and the numerator is the number of whatever will find the probability of

Answer 25

I need yellow.

Answer 26

yellow is 5 seconds

Answer 27

the probability of the yellow light turning on is 5/55 = 0.09%

Answer 28

the denominator is 55 because it's the total. You're looking for the yellow, so it's \[\frac{ 5 }{ 55 }\] which reduces to \[\frac{ 1 }{ 11 }\]

Answer 29
