What is the probability that the marble is red
What is the probability that the marble is green
What is the probability that the marble is yellow

Answer 1

U have to add all to see the total number of the marbles and then u just use the numbers that u have so red is 0/24 green is 6/24 yellow is 8/24

Answer 2

0, 1/4, and 1/3 chances

Explanation:

First add all the marbles up.

10 + 6 + 8 = 24

There are no red marbles ever mentioned, so the probability of a marble being red is 0, no chance.

There are 6 green marbles, so that's a 6/24 chance, or 1/4.

There are 8 yellow marbles, so that's a 8/24 chance, or 1/3.

Hope this helps :)
