Question

A family is trying to pick from different shades of paint for their living room. They have narrowed it down to 3 different blues and 6 different greens.

The family decides to just randomly select a color from these.

What is the probability they will pick a shade of blue?

Enter your answer to the nearest percent in the box.

Answer 1

3 over 9, 3/9, or $\frac{3}{9}$

For ratios, the numerator usually indicates how much of a specific option you have, and the denomenator is often times the total of the set.

In this case, you have a total of 9 shades, if you add the greens and blues together. Three of them, are blue.

Hopefully this helps!
