a bag contains 40 marbles. there are 26 blue, 5 green, 5 red, and 2 black marbles. without looking, Leyla reaches into the bag and draws one marble. what is the probability she draws a green marble?
To find the probability of drawing a green marble, we need to calculate the ratio of the number of green marbles to the total number of marbles.
Number of green marbles = 5
Total number of marbles = 40
Probability of drawing a green marble = Number of green marbles / Total number of marbles = 5/40 = 1/8
Therefore, the probability that Leyla draws a green marble is 1/8.
