Question

A bag of tokens contains 9 red, 6 green, and 5​ blue tokens. What is the probability that a randomly selected token is red and green?

Answer 1

Answer:

27/200

Step-by-step explanation:

Knowing that:

A bag of tokens contains 9 red, 6 green, and 5​ blue tokens. What is the probability that a randomly selected token is red and green?

Solve:

and = multiply

Total = 9 red + 6 green + 5 blue = 9 + 6 + 5 = 20

Total = 20 token

Thus,

There are 9 red and 6 green..

Hence,

9 out of 20 is red

6 out of 20 is green

Equation

9/20 × 6/20

Multiply Across:

9 × 6 = 54

20 × 20 = 400

54/400

Simplify

27/200

Therefore, the probability that a randomly selected token is red and green is 27/200.
