Maelynn has a bag full of candy-coated chocolate pieces. There are 12 red ones, 23 yellow ones, 25 blue ones, and 15 orange ones. What is the probability, expressed as a decimal, that she pulls out an orange one?(1 point)

Answer 1

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

The total number of candy-coated chocolate pieces Maelynn has is:

12 red + 23 yellow + 25 blue + 15 orange = 75 pieces

The probability of pulling out an orange one is the number of orange pieces divided by the total number of pieces:

15 orange / 75 total = 0.2

Therefore, the probability of pulling out an orange candy-coated chocolate piece is 0.2.
