Question

Anita has a collection of sports trading cards. Her collection consists of three basketball cards, six baseball cards, seven hockey cards, and eight football cards. Anita picked one card from her collection. What is the probability that Anita picked a football card?

Answer 1

Hi.

The total number of cards is 24.

Of those 24, there are 8 football cards. That
`(1)/(3)` of the cards are football cards.


`(1)/(3)` as a percent is 33.33%

There is a 33.33% chance that Anita will pick a football card.
