You randomly draw a marble from a bag that contains 16 red marbles, 5 green marbles, 6 black marbles and 3 yellow marbles. Find the probability that you draw a green marble. (Step by step solution )

OpenStudy (mayankdevnani):

\[\large \bf probability~of~green~variable=\frac{no.~of~green~marbles}{total ~no.~of~marbles}\]

OpenStudy (mayankdevnani):

can you now solve it? @holly01

So it would be 5 divided by 30

OpenStudy (mayankdevnani):

its not variable,its marble

OpenStudy (mayankdevnani):

correct.. @BassCatcher15

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Probability of green variables=0.16666666666667

OpenStudy (mayankdevnani):

@holly01

OpenStudy (mayankdevnani):

correct...Bass

Yes so i would divide 5 by 30 which equals 0.16666666666667 and my answer would be 0.16?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

5/30 is correct answer. Or you can write 0.167 or 16.7%
