<h3>
Answer: 7/12</h3>
=================================================
Explanation:
There are B = 3+5+4 = 12 marbles total, of which A = 12-5 = 7 are not black. Or you could note that we have A = 3 red + 4 white = 7 marbles that are not black.
The probability of selecting a non-black marble is A/B = 7/12
7/12 = 0.5833 = 58.33% approximately
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Product of 5 and a number: 5n
Six more than that would be 5n + 6
Finally, "six more than the product of 5 and a number, decreased by one" would be
5n + 6 - 1, or 5n + 5
48 divided 12 equal 4 ⇒ 4 times of 12 to go to 48
