Question

Use the theoretical method to determine the probability of the given outcome or event A bag contains 15 red candies, 5bae candes, and 10 yelow candes What s the pobablity f c? A ble can elow canay sonething beuodes a yelow canoyr The probability of drawing a red candy is (Round to the nearest hundredth as needed.) The probability of drawing a blue candy is (Round to the nearest hundredth as needed) The probablity of drawing a yellow candy is (Round to the nearest hundredth as needed ) The probability of drawing something besides a yelow candy is (Do not round unts the final answer. Then round to the nearest hundredth as needed )

Answer 1

Given there are 15 red, 5 blue and 10 yellow, i.e., total of 30 candies.

Probability of red candy = 15/30 = 1/2 = 0.5

Probability of blue candy = 5/30 = 1/6 = 0.17

Probability of yellow candy = 10/30 = 1/3 = 0.33

Probability of something besides yellow candy = 1 - probability of yellow = 1 - 0.33 = 0.67
