Question

Jackie has a closet with 6 red dresses and 2 blue dresses. What is the likelihood of Jackie pulling a red dress out of the closet if she does it without looking?

Answer 1

$\frac{6}{8} = \frac{3}{4} (simplifed)$

Step-by-step explanation:

First add up all the dresses 6+2=8

thats your total of dresses.

$\frac{ 6}{8}$

6 is the amount of red dresses you have.
