Question

Kayla has a bowl of beads that contains 42 yellow beads, 28 green beads, 12 white beads, and 18 red beads. She randomly draws a bead from the bowl.
The probability of Kayla not drawing a yellow or a green bead is
_____%. The probability of Kayla drawing a red or a green bead is
______%.

Answer 1

42 + 28 + 12 + 18 = 100 total beads

probability of not drawing a yellow or a green : (12 + 18) / 100 = 30/100 reduces to 3/10 or 30%

probability of drawing a red or green : (18 + 28) / 100 = 46/100 reduces to
23/50 or 46%

Answer 2

The probability of Kayla not drawing a yellow or a green bead is; 30 % and probability of Kayla drawing a red or a green bead is; 46%

How to Solve Probability Problems?

To get any of the required Probabilities, we need to first find the total number of beads.

Total number of beads = 42 + 28 + 12 + 18

Total number of beads = 100

The Probability of not drawing a yellow or a green is;

P(No yellow or green) =  (12 + 18)/100

P(No yellow or green) = 30/100 = 30%

Probability of drawing a red or green is;

P(Red or green) = (18 + 28)/100 = 46/100 = 46%
