A bag contains 5 blue marbles, 4 red marbles, and 3 orange marbles. You ask a friend to pick one without looking. What is the
probability that he picks one that is not red?

Respuesta :

he’ll probably pick the blue marble

Answer:

8/12

5 (blue) +3 (orange) +4 (red) =12 (total)

5 (blue) +3 (orange)=8 (number of marbles that aren't red) or 12 (total) - 4 (red marbles)=8

or 66.6667%
