There is a bag with only red marbles and blue marbles. The probability of randomly choosing a red marble is 1 /9 . There are 63 marbles in total in the bag and each is equally likely to be chosen. Work out how many red marbles there must be.

Respuesta :

Answer: 7 red marbles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are given the information that there are only red marbles and blue marbles in the bag and that the probability of randomly choosing a red marble is 1 /9 while there are 63 marbles in total.

Then the number of red marbles will be:

= 1/9 × 63

= 7

There are 7 red marbles

The number if blue marbles will be:

= 63 - 7

= 56 blue marbles
