Katherine has eight crayons in a bag: 2 red crayons, 3 blue crayons, 1 green crayon, and 2 purple crayons. What is the probability that if she randomly pulls a crayon out of the bag it will be purple?

Respuesta :

Answer: 1/4

Explanation:
She has 8 crayons in total.

2/8 are red, 3/8 are blue, 1/8 are green, 2/8 are purple. The chance of her pulling a purple crayon out of her bag is 2/8 which simplifies to 1/4. If your teacher is looking for a percentage then it’s 25%.
