Question

probability of randomly selecting a gummy bear. there are 12 gummy bears in a bag. what is the probability of selecting a green gummy bear? 1/12 1/6 1/3

Explanation:

Step1: Identify total and favorable outcomes

Total number of gummy - bears is 12. The height of the green bar is 1 out of 12.

Step2: Use probability formula

Probability $P=\frac{\text{Number of favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total number of outcomes}}$. Here, number of favorable outcomes (green gummy - bears) is 1 and total number of outcomes is 12. So $P = \frac{1}{12}$.

Answer:

1/12
