<h3>
Answer: 3/5</h3>
Work Shown:
3 blue + 3 red = 6 pens that are either blue or red
4 black + 3 blue + 3 red = 10 pens total
6/10 = 3/5 is the probability of selecting either blue or red
3/5 = 0.60 = 60%
Yes they can all have the same
3.60 / 20 = 0.18
4.20 / 28 = 0.15
The 28-ounce box has better value, as cost-per-ounce is lower.
First convert the numbers to get the same denominator
1/3=4/12
5/6=10/12
5/12
Then add them all together
4/12+10/12+5/12= 19/12
Then reduce
1 7/12
Your answer is 1 ton and 7/12 of a ton
