Given : A jar contains 24 Marbles,

some are green and some others are blue,

a marble is drawn at random from the jar, the probability that of that green is 2/3

To find : the number of blue balls in the jar.

Solution:

jar contains 24 Marbles,

Blue Marbles = B

Green Marbles = 24 - B  

Probability of Drawing Green Marble   =  (24 - B)/24

Probability of Drawing Green Marble   = 2/3

Equate

(24 - B)/24 = 2/3

=> (24 - B) = 16

=> B = 8

number of blue  marbles = 8
