Question

Kayla has a bowl of beads that contains 42 yellow beads, 28 green beads, 12 white beads, and 18 red beads. She randomly draws a bead from the bowl.
The probability of Kayla not drawing a yellow or a green bead is
%. The probability of Kayla drawing a red or a green bead is
%.

Answer 1

total beads =42+28+12+18. =100

not drawing a yellow or green bead = 42+28 =70

probability = 70/100 = 1/7

drawing a red or green bead =28+18 =46

probability = 46/100 = 23/50

Answer 2

42 + 28 + 12 + 18 = 100 total beads

probability of not drawing a yellow or a green : (12 + 18) / 100 = 30/100 reduces to 3/10 or 30%

probability of drawing a red or green : (18 + 28) / 100 = 46/100 reduces to
23/50 or 46%
