A bag contains 5 red marbles, 5 blue marbles, 6 green marbles, 8 purple marbles and 1 white marble. One is selected at random. Find the theoretical probability of each outcome. What’s the probability of pulling out a white marble? Express each theoretical probability as a fraction and as a percent
Accepted Solution
A:
the probability of selecting :
1- red marbles: [tex] \frac{5}{25} \: \: or \: \: 20\%[/tex]
2- blue marbles [tex] \frac{5}{25} \: \: or \: \: 20\%[/tex]
3- green marbles [tex] \frac{6}{25} \: \: or \: \: 24\%[/tex]
