Rachel is setting up tables for a party. Four of the tables are covered with red tablecloths, and eight of the tables are covere
d with white tablecloths. Guests will be randomly seated at the tables when they arrive. Each table can seat 8 guests. What is the probability that the first guest to arrive will be seated at a table with a red tablecloth?
there are 12 tables in total, 4 red and 8 blue. you can render that down to 1 red and 2 blue, now there are 3 tables and only 1 is red, therefore the answer is 1/3 chance
