There are 10 marbles in a bag. 5 blue, 3 red and 2 green. If you draw 1 marble at random, What are the odds in favor of drawing a red marble?
Is the answer 3/10 or 3/7 ???
3/10
Okay thanks
Nothing
To find the odds in favor of drawing a red marble, you need to compare the number of favorable outcomes (drawing a red marble) to the number of possible outcomes (drawing any marble).
In this case, there are 3 red marbles out of a total of 10 marbles. So, the probability of drawing a red marble is 3/10.
Therefore, the odds in favor of drawing a red marble are 3 to 10, which can be expressed as 3:10 or 3/10.
The answer is 3/10.
