Question

the theoretical probability choosing a purple marble out of a 2/3 bag is. The bag has 16 purple marbles. How many marbles are in the bag?​

Answer 1

24 marbles

Explanation:

P( purple) = 2/3 = purple/total

Using cross products

2 * total = 3 *16

2 * total = 48

total = 24

There are 24 marbles
