Question

a word problem for my math 2 homework a box contains 18 blue chips 6 red chips 4 green chips and 2 yellow chips that are identical in size and shape. If one chip is chosen at random, what is the probability that the chip will be either blue or yellow

Answer 1

First of all, your English grammar needs help as well as your math: punctuation and capitalization are as important to learn as math!

 

There are 30 chips in total of which 20 are either blue or yellow; therefore the required probability is 2/3.
