Kyle’s bowl of cereal has 5 blue marshmallows, 2 yellow marshmallows, 3 pink marshmallows, and 4 green marshmallows. if he picks one marshmallow at random, what is the probability that the marshmallow is green?

Answer

2/7

Explanation

The probability is a chance of something happening. It is calculated as;

Probability = (number of favorable outcome)/(total number of outcome)

5 blue marshmallows,

2 yellow marshmallows,

3 pink marshmallows, and

4 green marshmallows.

The favorable outcome here is 4 green.

Total number of outcome = 5+2+3+4 = 14

P(g) = 4/14

       = 2/7

Probability of picking a green marshmallow =

Step-by-step explanation:

We know,

the number of blue marshmallows = 5,

the number of yellow marshmallows = 2,

the number of pink marshmallows = 3; and

the number of green marshmallows = 4

So the total number of marshmallows = 14

To find the probability of picking up a green marshmallow, we will divide the number of green marshmallows by the total number of marshmallows in the cereal.

Probability of picking a green marshmallow = =

step-by-step explanation:

answer: h=5.6 i don't really know how to put into words, so i though i would let you do that. i hope i was able to some

step-by-step explanation:

18 = 6(h)+1/2

18 = 6h+1/2

18-1 = 6h/2

17 = 3h

17/3 = h

h = 5.6
