Question

A jar contains 10 red marbles, 8 green marbles, 5 blue marbles, and 6 white marbles. What is the probability that a randomly selected marble is not green?

Answer 1

Answer:

Probability (not green) = 21 / 29

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of red marble = 10

Number of green marble = 8

Number of blue marble = 5

Number of white marble = 6

Find:

Probability (not green)

Computation:

Total marble = 10 + 8 + 5 + 6

Total marble = 29

Probability (not green) = 1 - (Probability of green marble))

Probability (not green) = 1 - (8 / 29)

Probability (not green) = 21 / 29
