I will say there are two ways to solve this problem. The first is, you can use your calculator and calculate it to see which is the closest to 2. The second way is divide it and here is how you do it:
1 is just 1
15/16 = 16 goes into 15 for less than one
17/8 = 8 goes into 17 for more than two so you can rewrite it as

63/33 = 33 does not go into 63 for two
So the answer is 17/8

Answer:
12/20, or 3/5
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the probability of Raymond not picking red lillies, we first must establish the total amount Raymond can choose from as well as the amount of non-red lillies.
The total amount Raymond can choose from is the amount of bouqets. There are 8 red ones, 5 pink ones, and 7 violet ones. This means that there are 8+5+7=20 total bouquets.
The amount of non-red lillies is determined because we are asked to find the probability of selecting a non-red bouquet. We find the number of non-red bouquets by subtracting the total (20) by the number of red bouquets (8) to get 12.
Therefore, the total amount is 20 and the number of non-red bouquets is 12. Thus, if Raymond picks one bouquet, the probability of him selecting a non-red one is 12/20, or 3/5. The probability of him picking up a red bouquet, similarly, would be 8/20, as there are 8 options of red bouquets out of 20 total
