Question

emily chooses a paper clip from a box without looking. she records the color and replaces the paper clip. she repeats this several times. the table shows her results. based on her results, what is the probability of choosing a yellow paper clip from the box? the table has columns color and frequency, with yellow: 6, red: 13, blue: 5.

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate total trials

$6 + 13 + 5 = 24$

Step2: Find yellow probability

$\text{Probability} = \frac{\text{Yellow Frequency}}{\text{Total Trials}} = \frac{6}{24} = \frac{1}{4}$

Answer:

$\frac{1}{4}$
