Question 991114: Suppose there are 15 jelly beans in a box—2 red, 3 blue, 4 white, and 6 green. A jelly bean is selected at random.
What is the probability that the jelly bean is not red? (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.)

The total number of jelly beans that are not red divided by the total number of jelly beans. In other words, the number of ways to have a success divided by the number of ways the event can occur.
