A bag contains 5 blue marbles, 6 red marbles, and 4 green marbles. You select one marble at random from the bag. What is P(blue)?

P(blue) = 1/3  (Answer)

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability for any event A is given by

p(A) = no of times of happening of event A/ total no of occurrence of all the event given under the situation.

A bag contains 5 blue marbles, 6 red marbles, and 4 green marbles

So, total no of occurrence of all the event given under the situation

one can either pick blue , red or 4 green marbles

Total no. of occurrence of all the event = 5 + 6 + 4 = 15

Now , no of occurrence of selecting blue.

since there are 5 blue marbles, there is chance of selecting blue is 5.

no of occurrence of selecting blue = 5

Therefore,

P(blue) = no of occurrence of selecting blue /total no of occurrence of picking any color ball

P(blue) = 5/15 = 1/3  (Answer)
