Question

A jar of marbles contains the following: two purple marbles, four white marbles, three blue marbles, and two green marbles. What is the probability of selecting a white marble from a jar of marbles?

Answer 1

Answer:

4/11

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of marbles = 2(purple) + 4(white) + 3(blue) + 2(green)

                                          = 11

Number of white marbles = 4

Probability of selecting a white marble =

         number of white marbles/total number of marbles in the jar

         = 4/11
