a bag is full of poker chips . the probability of randomly selecting a red chip from the bag is 1/8. the probability of selecting a blue chip from the bag is 13/24. find the probability hint there are other colors in the bag too

Respuesta :

Answer:

1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the probability of selecting all coloured chips in the bag be 1.

If the probability of randomly selecting a red chip from the bag is 1/8 and the probability of selecting a blue chip from the bag is 13/24, then the probability of selecting both will be 1/8+13/24

1/8+13/24

= (3+13)/24

= 16/24

= 2/3

If the probability of selecting both ted and blue chip is 2/3, then the probability that there are other colors in the bag too will be expressed as 1-2/3 which is equivalent to 1/3
