Answer:

Probability: 50%

odds: 5:5

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

The probability is 50% that ball will be green.

Odds 5:5

Numbers of ways to draw a green marbles: number of ways to draw another marbles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided bag of marble.

The bag contains 5 green marble, 3 blue marbles and 2 red marbles.

The total number of marbles are: 5+3+2=10

The probability of getting a green marble is: 5/10=0.5

That means the probability is 50% that ball will be green.

Drawing green marbles means we want marble should be green and ODDs of drawing a green marble means the marble is not green.

There are 5 green marbles, so there are 5 outcomes that we want (out of 10 outcomes total)

There are 10-5 = 5 outcomes that we don't want a green marble.

Number of outcomes we want is 5

Number of outcomes we don't want is 5

Odds in favor = (wanted outcomes):(unwanted outcomes)

Odds in favor = 5:5

Numbers of ways to draw a green marbles: number of ways to draw another marbles.
