Question

There are 25 balls in a jar, 12 balls are red, 10 balls are blue, and 3 balls are white, which of the following describes the likelihood of randomly picking a white ball

Answer 1

The likelihood of randomly picking a white ball can be calculated by dividing the number of white balls by the total number of balls in the jar:

Number of white balls = 3
Total number of balls = 25

Likelihood of picking a white ball = 3/25 = 0.12 or 12%
