Question

There are six purple marbles and four pink marbles in a box. What is the probability of Elsa picking a pink marble out the box?

A. 4 out of 10
B. 1 out of 4
C. 4 out of 6
D. 5 out of 10
E. 1 out of 10

Answer 1

Purple marbles = 6
Pink marbles = 4
Total = 10

So,

`(4)/(10) = (2)/(5)`

The answer is A. 4 out of 10
