Question

a bag contains 1 blue, 2 green, and 3 red marbles, as shown. what is the probability of drawing a green marble out of the bag without looking? 1/2 1/3 1/5 1/6

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate total number of marbles

Total marbles = \(1 + 2+3=6\)

Step2: Calculate probability of green marble

Probability \(P=\frac{\text{Number of green marbles}}{\text{Total marbles}}=\frac{2}{6}=\frac{1}{3}\)

Answer:

\(\frac{1}{3}\)
