Question

A bag contains 4 brown marbles,3 green marbles,2 red marbles and 1 purple marble.Calulate the probability of drawing each color, and write each answer as a fraction as a percent and as a decimal

Answer 1

Answer:

Probability states the ratio of number of favorable outcomes to the total number of possible outcomes.

i.e,  $probability = \frac{Number of favourable outcomes }{Total number of possible outcomes}$

A bag contains:

Brown marble = 4

Green marbles = 3

Red marbles = 2

Purple marble = 1

Total number of possible outcomes = (4+3+2+1) = 10 marbles

P(Brown marbles) = $\frac{4}{10}=\frac{2}{5} = 40\% = 0.4$

P(Green marbles) = $\frac{3}{10} = 30\% = 0.3$

P(Red marbles) = $\frac{2}{10}=\frac{1}{5} = 20\% = 0.2$

and

P(Purple marbles) = $\frac{1}{10}= 10\% = 0.1$

Answer 2

Answer:The possible outcome would be 10, because 4 brown marbles + 2 red marbles + 1 purple marble+3 green marbles = 10 outcomes!
