Question 630293: A flower vase contains 3 white flowers,4 blue flowers, 2 yellow flowers,and 6 red flowers.If one is randomly picked,what is the probabily that it will be white? Answer by ewatrrr(24785) (Show Source):
Hi,
flower vase containsFlowers: 3 white ,4 blue, 2 yellow,and 6 red
If one is randomly picked
P(white) = 3/15 = 1/5
Writing as We Read:
17 times a number plus 3 equals 10
17n + 3 = 10
44 increased by a number and then multiplyd by 6 equals 144
6(44 + n) = 144
264 + 6n = 144
6n = 120
