Let p(green) = probability of picking a green marble\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "p(green) = 10/total number of marbles\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "p(green) = 10/(10 + 4)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "p(green) = 10/14\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "p(green) = 5/7\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Done!\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++\r

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"Thank you and this helped me but I do not no how you got the 5/7 when it was 10/14 at first but thank you once again.\" \r

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Both fractions are equivalent fractions. I simply reduced 10/14 to 5/7 but both answers are correct.\r
