Question

Jerry has 9 keys on his keyring. 4 of them are silver and 5 are gold. If he randomly chooses a key.

what is the probability that the key would be silver?

Answer 1

Silver keys = 4

Gold keys = 5

Total number of keys = 9

probability of getting a silver key = P(4/9)

Explanation:

P(4/9) because 4 keys are silver among 9 keys. Probability is the number of chosen matter divided by the total number of matters.

Answer 2

the answer would be 4/9 , which cannot be simplified .
