The answer is 3/4.

25% of the 200 jelly beans are green, by converting 25% into a decimal and multiplying it by the total amount of jelly beans, you can find the amount of jelly beans that are green.

25% = 0.25

200 x 0.25 = 50

Therefore 50 of the jelly beans are green.

The question wants to know the probability of the jelly bean being picked is not green.

200 - 50 = 150 jelly beans not green

Finding the probability:

150/200 = 3/4
