What is the probablility of picking a green marble at random from a box that contains only 11 blue marbles?

The probability of picking a green marble from a box that only contains blue marbles is zero.


What is the experimental probability of choosing a green marble if there are 7 red 9 yellow 14 green and 10 purple?

To find the experimental probability of choosing a green marble, first calculate the total number of marbles: 7 red + 9 yellow + 14 green + 10 purple = 40 marbles. The probability of choosing a green marble is the number of green marbles divided by the total number of marbles, which is 14 green / 40 total = 0.35. Thus, the experimental probability of choosing a green marble is 0.35, or 35%.


A bag has 7 blue marbles and 8 purple marbles.What is the probability of picking a blue marble then a purple marble without replacing?

7/15 for blue marbles and 8/14 for the purple marbles this is dependent probability


A bag contains 6 red marbles 4 blue marbles and 1 green marble What is the probability of choosing a marble that is not blue?

Well, honey, there are 11 marbles in total, and 4 of them are blue. So, if you don't want a blue marble, that leaves you with 7 marbles to choose from. The probability of picking a marble that is not blue is 7/11. Hope that helps, sugar!


A box contains 8 green marbles 4 red marbles and 4 purple marbles if you draw a marble at random what is the probability that you will not draw a red marble?

Probability of drawing a red marble = 4/16 = 1/4 Probability of drawing not a red marble = 1 - 1/4 = 3/4

None, if all the marbles that you have are yellow!


A bag contains 3 red marbles 5 blue marbles 8 yellow marbles and 4 black marbles what is the theoretical probability of randomly picking each color marble?

The theoretical probability of randomly picking each color marble is the number of color marbles you have for each color, divided by the total number of marbles. For example, the probability of selecting a red marble is 3/20.

0No blue marbles in the bag.


There are 9 red and 6 blue marbles in a jar If you draw red marbles from the jar 7 times what is the experimental probability of drawing a red marble?

The answer is dependent on whether of not you replace the marbles in the jar. If you do, the probability of drawing a red marble is 9 in 15 or 60%, every time. If you do not replace the marbles, the probability of drawing a red marble is 2 in 8 or 25%.


A bag contains 6 orange 7 green and 8 yellow marbles Find the probability of picking 3 yellow marbles if each marble is returned to the bag before the next marble is picked?

Well, honey, if you're reaching into that bag three times and each time you're pulling out a yellow marble and then putting it back in, the probability of picking a yellow marble each time is 8/21. Multiply that by itself three times because you're picking three marbles, and you get a probability of 512/9261. So, good luck with those yellow marbles, darlin'!


A bag contains 3 blue marbles 7 red marbles and 5 yellow marbles If Joe picks 1 marble from the bag at random what is the probability that it will be blue?
