Step-by-step explanation:

first you count how many there are which is 25 and than you 5 red marbles so it would be 5/25

Answer 2

Answer:

Probability of randomly drawing a red marble is $[\frac{1}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given 5 red marbles, 8 blue marbles, and 12 green marbles in a bag. we have to find the 5 red marbles, 8 blue marbles, and 12 green marbles in a bag.

As Probability of an event  is the chances of an event to occur. It is defined as the favourable outcomes by total number of outcomes.

As no. of red marbles are 5 and

Total number of marbles are 5+8+12=25 marbles.

Hence, probability of randomly drawing a red marble is

$\frac{\text{Favourable outcomes}}{\text{Total number of outcomes}}=\frac{5}{25}=\frac{1}{5}$
