Question

Mr. Wilson's desk drawer contains 4 black, 3 blue, and 3 red pens. If he selects one pen a random, what is the probability that it will be either blue or red?

Answer 1

Answer:  3/5

Work Shown:

3 blue + 3 red = 6 pens that are either blue or red

4 black + 3 blue + 3 red = 10 pens total

6/10 = 3/5 is the probability of selecting either blue or red

3/5 = 0.60 = 60%
