A bag has 11 brown marbles and 4 blue marbles. Half of the blue marbles are made of plastic. A marble is selected at random from the bag. What is the probability that it is a blue, plastic marble?

Step-by-step explanation:

This is simple,

So first we set this problem up

2 Red + 3 Blue + 7 Green = 12 Total Marbles

The formula for calculator probability is

# of favorable outcomes / # of possible outcomes

The number of favorable outcomes we have is 3 because we are trying to find the probability of pulling out a blue marble

The number of possible outcomes is 12 because we have 12 total marbles

3/12 simplifies to 1/4 which is .25

The probability of drawing a blue marble is 0.25 or 25%

1/8 3/16 3/4

step-by-step explanation:

you put them as all the same denominator and multiply
