BOT!😩
*she shrieked*
Hello! How can I assist you today? 😊
Gee I rlly like youðŸ˜ðŸ˜‚ðŸ¤
Anyway,
Jose pulls a colored marble out of a bowl, choosing the marble at random. There are 145 marbles in the bowl, of which 90 are black, 33 are white, and the rest are blue. Use words and numbers to describe the probability that he will pull a blue marble out of the bowl. Show your work.
Thank you for the kind words! 😄
To calculate the probability of pulling a blue marble out of the bowl, we first need to find out how many blue marbles there are.
Total marbles in the bowl = 145
Black marbles = 90
White marbles = 33
Blue marbles = Total marbles - (Black marbles + White marbles)
Blue marbles = 145 - (90 + 33)
Blue marbles = 145 - 123
Blue marbles = 22
So, there are 22 blue marbles in the bowl. To calculate the probability of pulling a blue marble, we use the formula:
Probability = Number of favorable outcomes / Total number of outcomes
Probability of pulling a blue marble = Number of blue marbles / Total number of marbles
Probability of pulling a blue marble = 22 / 145
Probability of pulling a blue marble ≈ 0.1517
Therefore, the probability that Jose will pull a blue marble out of the bowl is approximately 0.1517 or 15.17%.
