Answer:

16/21 or approximately 0.761

Step-by-step explanation:

Add up each marble to get the total number of marbles (21), then add up the sample size (16). From here, divide the sample size by the total number to find the probability. (76.1%)

Answer:

[tex]0.76[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability = Number of favorable outcomes / Number of possible outcomes

There are [tex]16[/tex] favorable outcomes (the [tex]8+8=16[/tex] marables that are either blue or red).

There are [tex]21[/tex] possible outcomes (the [tex]8+5+8=21[/tex] total marables).

P (draw a blue or red marable) [tex]= \frac{16}{21}[/tex] ≈ [tex]0.76[/tex]
