a pizza restaurant has a toddler play area with a ball pit. The ball pit has 1000 red balls, 500 green balls, and 100 yellow balls. if a ball is randomly picked from the pit, what is the probability it is yellow?
a 1/100
b 1/16
c 1/15
d 1/10
The probability of picking a yellow ball from the pit can be found by dividing the number of yellow balls by the total number of balls in the pit.
Total number of balls = 1000 (red) + 500 (green) + 100 (yellow) = 1600
Probability = Number of yellow balls / Total number of balls = 100 / 1600 = 1/16
So, the correct answer is b) 1/16.
