First, we add everything together, so; 3 + 3 + 4 + 2 = 12. This means every marble has a 8.33% chance of being chosen, however since there are more than others we add those separate percentages together.
Pink: 25%
Violet: 25%
Yellow: 33.33%
Brown: 16.66%
These are the chances of you getting either color. Since the problem asks what is the probability of finding a violet marble,we just look at the written percentages to see we have a 25% chance of choosing a violet marble.
The next step is to see what is the probability of choosing a pink marble, except we have to change things up a bit. Since we removed 1 marble, that changes ALL the percentages again, so we must rewrite the percentages. 12 - 1 is easily solved as 11, and so this means every marble has a 9.0909091% of being chosen. Let's rewrite the grouped percentages now:
Pink: 27.27%
Violet: 18.18%
Yellow: 36.36%
Brown: 18.18%
Now we see that with one marble removed, and that marble not being pink, we have a 27.27% chance of picking a pink marble.
Your Answer: 25% of Violet first time, 27.27% of Pink second time.
(How To Get Percentages?): Simple, you divide 100 (since whatever number we start out with as long as it claims nothing is missing equal 100%) by whatever number of objects you have. So as an example, if I have 5 objects, 100 / 5 = 20. This means every individual object has a 20% chance of being chosen. But we then arrange everything into whatever groups (in your problems case, colors) and multiply by the amount. So say I have 3 green balls and 2 white balls, 3 x 20 = 60 and 2 x 20 = 40 so I have a 60% of getting a green ball and 40% chance of a white ball.
Hope this helps and I hope even more you learned something :D
She has 47 total
20 are from Europe
some are from Africa,
and some from Asia
how many from Africa? hmm let's say "a"
how many from Asia? hmm let's say "b"
we know that, she has twice as many "a" as she has "b" stamps,
so, whatever "b" is, a = 2 * b, or a = 2b
so.. let us add them together
solve for "b", to see how many from Asia she has
what's "a"? well, a = 2b , that's how many African ones she has :)
Answer:
\frac{A+c}{b}
Step-by-step explanation:
\frac{A}{b}+\frac{c}{b}
