Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) find the total candies

7 + 8 + 5 + 9 = 29

2) a probability can be expressed with a fraction whose denominator is the total candies, while the numerator represents the candies that we want to find

- red = 7/29

- blue = 8/29

- yellow = 5/29

- green = 9/29

3) compound probability

(red + blue)/29 = 15/29

(yellow + green)/29 = 14/29

(blue + yellow + green)/29 = 22/29
