Question

Clara's father has a large collection of ties. The table shows how many ties he has of each
color and pattern

plaid 6
blue 2
purple 16
green 3

If Clara's father chose a tie at random, what is the probability that the tie would be plaid?

Write your answer as a fraction or whole number.

Answer 1

Answer:

if Clara's father were to put all of the ties in a bowl, shuffle them, and pick a tie, then the chance of getting a plaid one would be a more significant percentage than the blue and green ties. let's say he will have a 40%  chance to make it simple.
