Question

jar contains 27 marbles. There are 4 blue marbles and the rest are red. If a marble is chosen at random, what is the likelihood that it will be red?
A Neither unlikely not likely
B Likely
C Certain
D Not likely

Answer 1

There are 27 − 4 = 23 red marbles. Probability = 23/27 ≈ 0.8519 (≈85.2%), which is greater than 50% but not 100%, so it's "Likely." Answer: B.
