Answer 2

Ah, probability. A family favourite(In my case)

Answer: 1/4 (8/32 simplified)

Explanation:

To answer the question, first let's find out how many green and red washcloths there are.(w representing white, g representing green, and r representing red)

There are twice as many g washcloths as w washcloths, so we multiply 4x2 and get eight g washcloths.

Now that we've found out how many g washcloths are there we can multiply 8x2 to get 16 r washcloths.

Now we add them all of to get 32 total wash cloths, and the probability can be shown as 8/32 simplified as 1/4
