There are 5 red marbles, 8 blue marbles, and 12 green marbles in a bag.What is the theoretical probability of randomly drawing a red marble?25%20%62.5%41.7%

Answer: Second Option20%Step-by-step explanation:We have 5 red marbles, 8 blue marbles and 12 green marbles in a bag. In total there are 5 + 8 + 12 = 25 marbles This means that the experiment "get a marble out of the bag" has 25 possibilities. Then, the chances of getting a red marble are 5, because there are 5 red marbles. Finally the probability of drawing a red marble is: [tex]P_{red} = \frac{5}{25}\\\\P_{red} = \frac{1}{5}\\\\P_{red} = 0.20[/tex][tex]P_{red} =20\%[/tex]
