First, we need to find the total number of hot air balloons that are multicolored and contain 1 passenger.
From the given information, we can see that there are 3 multicolored balloons with 1 passenger.
The total number of balloons with 1 passenger is the sum of balloons with 1 passenger that are single color and multicolored, which is 2 + 3 = 5.
Therefore, the probability that a randomly selected hot air balloon is multicolored and contains 1 passenger is 3/5.
Simplify the fraction if needed.
At a hot air balloon festival, Tiana made note of how many passengers were in each balloon and whether the balloon was a single color or multicolored.
1 passenger 2 passengers
Single color 2 6
Multicolored 3 6
What is the probability that a randomly selected hot air balloon is multicolored and contains 1 passenger?
