Question

There are 4 green counters 6 yellow counters and 2 red counters. What is the theoretical probability of picking a yellow counter in percent?

Answer 1

The total number of counters is 4 + 6 + 2 = 12.

The probability of picking a yellow counter is 6/12 = 0.5

To convert this to a percentage, multiply by 100:

0.5 * 100 = 50%

So, the theoretical probability of picking a yellow counter is 50%.
