A bag contains 6 blue balls, 4 green and 2 red. If you put your hand in and picked a ball at
random what are the chances it is blue?
A. 45%
B. 60%
C. 50%
D. 33.3%
well, there are 12 balls
6 of them are blue.
So, what do you think?
50%
50%
To find the chances of picking a blue ball at random from the bag, we need to determine the probability of selecting a blue ball out of all the balls in the bag.
First, let's find the total number of balls in the bag: 6 blue + 4 green + 2 red = 12 balls.
The chance of selecting a blue ball out of all the balls in the bag can be calculated as follows:
P(Blue) = (Number of Blue Balls) / (Total Number of Balls)
= 6 / 12
= 0.5
= 50%
Therefore, the correct answer is option C. 50%.
