Question 444843
A bag contains eight green marbles,five white marbles,and two red marbles. What is the probability of drawing a red marble from the bag? 
I know the denominator on the fraction would be 15 because 8+5+2=15, but im not sure how to get the numerator. 
Please explain and show me? Thank you in advance
---------------
The probability of getting a red marble equals
the # of ways you can get a red marble divided
by the total # of marbles in the bag.
P(red) = 2/15
