A bag contains 17 cards numbered 1 through 17. A card is randomly chosen from the bag. What is the probability that the card has a multiple of 3 on it

Respuesta :

Answer: 5/17

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: write all numbers from 1 to 17:

(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17)

Step 2: list all numbers in the space which are multiples of 3:

(3,6,9,12,15)

Probability that the card has a multiple of three of it is derived by dividing number of possible outcomes by number of total outcomes

No of possible outcomes=5

No of total outcomes =17

Pr (card drawn has multiple of 3) = 5/17

I hope this helps, please mark as brainliest answer.

Write all numbers

1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17

Choose multiples of 3
3,6,9,12,15

Total outcomes: 17
Outcomes with multiple of 3: 5

5/17

To find percent

5/17 equals x/100

Solve for x
