More information is required. Probability by definition is the proportion of a part, called a sample, to the whole, called a population. Thus in this question, we are given the sample only and without the population, it is impossible to calculate the probability. We need to know the size of the population. As a guide, supposing there are 8 red marbles in a jar containing 40 marbles, then the probability of choosing red is 8/40 or 1: 0.2. There is 20 per cent probability of choosing red.

What is the probability of choosing a marble that is not blue in problem 2?
if there is a jar containing 5 red marbles 6green and 4 blue what is the probability off not chossing a blue marble
What is the probability of choosing a marble that is not blue if a jar contains 4 red 7 green and 5 blue marbles?
5:16
What is the probability of choosing a green marble from a jar containing 4 red 7green and 5 blue marbles?
7/(4+7+5) = 7/16 = 43.75%
What is the probability of getting a red marble out of a bag of twenty?
4 If the marbles are all red - 100%. You need to give the number of each different colored marble
If you have a bag containing 24 marbles If the probability of drawing a red marble is twice as likely not drawing a red marble how many red marbles are in the bag?
Suppose probability of drawing a red marble is p. Then p = 2*(1 - p) that is p = 2 - 2p or p = 2/3 So 2/3 of the 24 marbles are red 24*(2/3) = 16 red marbles.
What is the probability of choosing a marble that is not blue out of 5 red and 6 green?
100%
What is the probability of choosing a red marble from a jar 5 red 6 green and 4 blue marble?
1/3 or 33%
What is the probability of not choosing a green marble from a jar containing 5 red 6 green and 4 blue marbles?
This is the same as the probability of choosing either a red of a blue marble. There are 5+4 out of 15 ways of doing this. The probability is therefore 9/15 = 3/5.
What is the probability of choosing blue marble followed by a green marble from a bag containing 5 blue 5 green and 5 red marbles?
The probability of choosing a blue marble is 5 in 15 or 1 in 3. The probability of then choosing a green marble is 5 in 14. (One is missing) Multiply the two probabilities and you get 5 in 42.(P = 0.1190... about 12%).
What is the probability of choosing a marble that is not blue in problem 2?
if there is a jar containing 5 red marbles 6green and 4 blue what is the probability off not chossing a blue marble
What is the theoretical probability of choosing a red and blue marble on a turn?
cant answer this question without more information....probability requires a ratio.
What is the probability of choosing a marble that is not blue if a jar contains 4 red 7 green and 5 blue marbles?
5:16
What is the probability of choosing a green marble from A jar containing 4 red 6 green and 5 blue marbles?
If one marble is chosen at random, the probability is 6/(4+6+5) = 6/15 = 2/5
What is the probabilityof choosing a green marble from a jar containing 5 red 6 green and 4 blue marbles?
The probability of choosing a green marble from this jar would be 6/15. You get this answer by adding up the sum of all the marbles.
What is the probability of choosing a marble that is not blue in problem?
It can not be determined with the data provided.
What is the probability of choosing a red marble from a jar containing. 5 red6green and 4 blue marbles?
5 out of 15 or 1/3 1:3
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
