Question

Mackenzie has a bag that contains 6 red marbles, 4 blue marbles, and 14 yellow marbles. If she chooses one marble from the bag, what is the probability that the marble is not yellow?

Answer 1

Probability that the marble is not yellow is:

5/12

Explanation:

Mackenzie has a bag that contains 6 red marbles, 4 blue marbles, and 14 yellow marbles.

She chooses one marble from the bag we have to find the probability that the marble is not yellow.

number of marbles which are not yellow= 6+4=10

Total number of marbles=6+4+14

= 24

Hence, P(Marble is not yellow)

= number of marbles which are not yellow/total number of marbles

= 10/24

= 5/12
