In a carnival drawing, a green ticket wins $1, a yellow ticket wins $5, and a blue ticket wins $10. There are 100 green tickets, 25 yellow tickets and 5 blue tickets. in simplest form,what are the odds in favor of winning $5 or more ?
first, you add up the non-$10 winning cars so 100+25=125. then you take 5:125 because you want the winning $10 against not winning. then to get 1 you divide both numbers by 5 to get 1 on the left. so get 1:25. So the odds of winning are 1:25 chances.
