Question

A family is trying to pick from different shades of paint for their living room. They have narrowed it down to 3 different blues and 6 different greens. The family decides to just randomly select a color from these. What is the probability they will pick a shade of blue? Enter your answer to the nearest percent in the box

Answer 1

3 blues + 6 greens= 9 colors
3/9 probability of blue
Reduce: 1/3 or 33%

Answer 2

If you add 6 and 3 you get 9 and a 1/3 of that equals the blue, the percentage is 33%.
