Probability=number of specific outcomes / total number of possible outcomes...

P(r)=7/(9+7+6)

P(r)=7/22  ( ≈31.82%)

The probability that a ribbon selected at random from the basket will be red is; 31.82%

How to find the Probability?

We are given contents of the basket as;

Number of blue ribbons = 9

Number of red ribbons = 7

Number of white ribbons = 6

Total number of ribbons = 9 + 7 + 6

Total Number of Ribbons = 22 ribbons

Thus;

P(Red is selected) = 7/22 = 31.82%
