The probability of picking a green grape is 1/2.

<h3>What is probability?</h3>

Probability is the occurence of likely events. It is the area of mathematics that deals with numerical estimates of the likelihood that an event will occur or that a statement is true. An event's probability is a number between 0 and 1.

Since the probability of picking a red grape out of the bowl, eating it, and then picking a green grape out of the bowl is 1/8 and probability of picking just a red grape is 1/4 .

The probability of green grape will be the division. This will be:

= P(R and G) / P(R)

= 1/8 ÷ 1/4

= 1/8 × 4/1

= 1/2

The probability is 1/2.
