Respuesta :
The total number of red m&m out of all m&m is 2/5.
The total number of green m&m out of all m&m is 1/4.
if we add up 2/5 and 1/4, we can use that information to subtract from the total number of m&m to find the rest of m&m, which would be a total number of white m&m!
2/5 + 1/4 = ?
Common denominator. We will choose 20, since it is the lowest common multiple! (this means that 20/20 is the total number of all m&m, by the way. )
[tex]\frac{2(4)}{5(4)}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{1(5)}{4(5)}[/tex] = 8/20 + 5/20 = a
20/20 - a = ?
ANSWER: 7/20
The probability of selecting a white-colored M&M is 7/20.
The total number of red m&m out of all m&m is 2/5.
The total number of green m&m out of all m&m is 1/4.
if we add up 2/5 and 1/4, we can use that information to subtract from the total number of m&m to find the rest of m&m, which would be a total number of white m&m
2/5 + 1/4 = ?
Common denominator. We will choose 20, since it is the lowest common multiple (this means that 20/20 is the total number of all m&m, by the way. )
What is the probability?
Probability means possibility. It is a branch of mathematics that deals with the occurrence of a random event. The value is expressed from zero to one.
8/10 +5/20 = 8/20 + 5/20 = a
20/20 - a = ?
Therefore the probability of selecting a white M&M is 7/20.
