Question

A bag contains 5 blue ball, 4 red balls, and 3 orange balls. If a ball is picked from the bag at random, what is the probability that it is a blue ball? Answers have been rounded to the tenths place. ​

Answer 1

There is a 0.4 probability because 5+4+3=12 and 5 divided by 12 is 0.4166666667 but rounded it is 0.4.

Answer 2

The Answer could be 5/12 since there’s 5 Blue Balls out of random other colors. To Find Probability, You must take the “if a ball is picked from the bag at random, what is the probability” and combine it with the “Blue Ball”


For Example:

Tom and Henry have a Bag filled with 8 Red Blocks, 2 Orange Blocks, and 1 Blue Block. If a Block is Pulled Randomly, What is the Probability if it is a Orange Block(s)?

Answer:
2/11
