Question

There are 16 marbles in a bowl: 3 are red, 6 are black, and 7 are green. Jimmy draws

1 marble from the bowl. What is the probability that the marble is either red or black?

Answer 1

Answer:

9/29 or about 31%

Step-by-step explanation:

6+3=9    6+3+7+16=29 so 9/29 (have a great time finishing the rest of your work) :)

Answer 2

Answer:

9/16

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it is asking for the probability for red or black, you add the amount of black and red marbles. Since there are 16 marbles in total, the probability as a fraction would be part/whole so the fraction is written 9/16
