Answer:

3/16, 18.75%, or 0.1875

Step-by-step explanation:

Add the colored marbles to find the total number of marbles:

3 + 5 + 8 = 16 marbles

We know there are 3 green marbles, so that will be our numerator for the fraction.

[tex]\frac{3}{16}[/tex]  is our answer. We can convert this into a percentage:

[tex]\frac{18.75}{100}[/tex][tex]=[/tex] 18.75%

Now, as a decimal:

0.1875
