Answer:

1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

** numbers of chances you can pick/total chances of that you can pick anything

--> # of chances you can pick red pens, in this case, is 3, since there are only 3 red pens -->3/total

--> in this case total should be every numbers of pens added --> 3+8+4 = 15

--> 3/15 -->simplify: 1/5
