Question

Different shapes are drawn on cards and then the cards are placed in a bag. The number of cards for each shape is shown in the table.
Shape triangle square circle
Number of cards 16 16 18
What is the probability that a randomly selected card has a triangle drawn on it?

Answer 1

Answer: $\frac{8}{25}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of cards in the bag=$16+16+18=50$

The number of cards has triangle = 16

The probability that a randomly selected card has a triangle drawn on it is given by :-

$=\frac{\text{Number of cards has triangle}}{\text{Total cards}}\\\\=\frac{16}{50}\\\\=\frac{8}{25}$

Hence, the probability that a randomly selected card has a triangle drawn on it =$\frac{8}{25}$

Answer 2

The probability is 16/50 or 32 percent
