Given : Michael is organizing a game of chance for his class.
He asks each student to pick a ribbon from a bag and then put it back into the bag.
The bag has 12 yellow ribbons, 7 red ribbons, and 3 blue ribbons.
Jane picks a ribbon,
To Find : what is the probability that the ribbon will be yellow
and what is the likelihood of this event?
Solution:
The bag has 12 yellow ribbons, 7 red ribbons, and 3 blue ribbons.
Hence total ribbons = 12 + 7 + 3 = 22
probability that the ribbon will be yellow = 12/22
= 6/11
6/11 > 0.5
the event is likely
