Question

you have 4 yellow,16 tan and 3 brown sock. randomly you grab one what is the probability it's NOT brown

Answer 1

Hello!

First you have to find how many socks there are

4 + 16 + 3 = 23

To find the probability of choosing a sock that is not brown you do the amount of socks that are not brown over the total amount of socks

The answer is 20/23 or 0.87 or 87%

Hope this helps!
