There are 5 red baloons, 3 green baloons, 2 yellow baloons and only one pink baloon. What are the odds that richard picks a red baloon first?

You can put this solution on YOUR website! 5+3+2+1=11 total items to choose from.
Here you need to create the following fraction: success/total items.
Thus you have 5 successes out of a total of 11 items.
5/11=.4545 or 45.45% success in picking a red balloon.
