Ricky has a bowl with 80 jellybeans in it. There are 16 red, 24 green, 12 yellow, 20 orange, and 8 black jellybeans. Ricky takes one jelly
from the bowl without looking.
What is the probability he takes a yellow jellybean?

Respuesta :

Answer:

There's a 12/80 or a 15% chance of picking a yellow jellybean.

Step-by-step explanation:

There's 12 yellow out of 80 possible (12/80)

Reduce and simplify to 3 yellow for every 20 jellybeans

Multiply both the numerator and denominator of 3/20 by 5

15/100 or 15% chance
