package of ballons contains 5 green, 3 yellow, 4 red, and 8 pink balloons.
suppose you reach in the package and choose one balloon at random. What is the probability of each event.
Express each answer as a fraction, percent, and decimal.
P(RED BALLOON) - 5 of (5+3+4+8) = 5 of 20 = 5/20 = 1/4 = 0.25 = 25%
P(YELLOW BALLOON) - 3 of 20 = 3/20 = 0.15 = 15%
P(PINK BALLOON) - 8 of 20 = 8/20 = 0.40 = 40%
P(ORANGE BALLOON) do it on your own
P(RED OR YELLOW BALLOON) - (4+3) of 20 = 7/20 = 0.35 = 35%
P(NOT GREEN BALLOON) - (3+4+8) of 20 = 15/20 = 3/4 = 0.75 = 75%
