Hey there :)
Let us translate the sentence into mathematics step by step:
There are twice as many as blue cubes as yellow cubes
2 x yellow = 2 cubes = blue
1 cube = yellow
There are four times as many as green cubes as blue cubes
4 x 2 ( blue cubes ) = 8 cubes = green
Total cubes = yellow + blue + green
= 1 + 2 + 8
= 11
Hannah takes random cube
Probability that Hannah takes yellow cube:
P = number of Yellow cubes ÷ Total number of cubes
P =
