Question 1190821: In a large bucket, there are umbrellas of colours yellow, blue and black. The numbers of yellow, blue and black umbrellas are in the ratio 9 : 10 : 11. If an umbrella is picked at random, what is the probability of getting a yellow umbrella? Answer by Solver92311(821) (Show Source):
If the colors are in the ratio 9:10:11, then there are 9x yellow, 10x blue, and 11x black umbrellas. The total number of umbrellas is (9 + 10 + 11)x = 30x.
Divide the number of yellow umbrellas by the total number of umbrellas.
