Answer:

It's more likely that Tom will pick a marble of another colour.

Step-by-step explanation:

In total there are 17 marbles and there are only 8 red ones

8/17

And the Blue and White marbles equal to 9

9/17

Therefore the other colours have a better chance at being picked than the red marbles.
