Question

A bag of tiles contains 6 green, 4 yellow, and 5 blue tiles. If one tile is pulled at random what is the probability of NOT choosing a green tile.
Make sure to give your probability as a fraction in the simplest form.

Answer 1

Answer:

total tiles = 6 + 4 + 5

= 15

P( not green tile) = 9/15

= 3/5

Answer 2

✪Given✪ -:

✪Total Amount of Tiles✪: 15 Tiles

✪Green Tiles✪: 6

✪Yellow Tiles✪: 4

✪Blue Tiles✪: 5

✪Work✪ -:

To find the probability of not choosing a green tile

We must find the probability of green tiles subtracted by the total probability of the total amount of tiles.

✪Probability of Green Tile✪ : 2/5 [Simplest Form]

✪Probability of Yellow Tile✪ : 4/15 [Simplest Form]

✪Probability of Blue Tile✪ : 1/3 [Simplest Form]

✪Answer✪ -:

The probability of NOT choosing a green tile is 3/5 [Simplest Form]
