The probability of pulling out a yellow marble can be calculated by taking the number of yellow marbles (2) and dividing it by the total number of marbles in the bag (5 green marbles + 2 yellow marbles + 3 blue marbles = 10 total marbles).
2/10 simplifies to 1/5.
Therefore, the probability of pulling out a yellow marble is 1/5.
I have a bag of marbles with 5 green marbles, 2 yellow marbles, and 3 blue marbles. What is the probability that I will reach in and pull out a yellow marble? Express your answer as a fraction in simplest form. Use the lesson notes as needed for help.(1 point)
