Question

There are two bags each containing red balls and yellow balls. Bag A contains 1 red and 4 yellow balls. Bag B contains 3 red and 13 yellow balls. Alva says that if we choose one bag and draw one ball from that bag you should always choose bag B if you are trying to draw a red ball because it has more red balls than bag A.

Answer 1

P(red in A) = 1/5

P(red in B) = 3/16

To compare, change to decimals.

Answer 2
