Use / for fraction bar if necessary

p(blue gumball)=18/104=9/52

p(pink gumball)=28/104=7/13

p(blue or pink gumball)=42/104=21/52

p(not blue or pink gumball)=58/104=29/52

Step-by-step explanation:

p(blue gumball)= number of blue gumballs/total number of gumballs

p(pink gumball)= number of pink gumballs/total number of gumballs

p(blue or pink gumball)= number of blue+number of pink/total number of gumballs

p(not blue or pink gumball)= you could think of this two ways, either subtract the number of blue+pink gumballs from the total number of gumballs; 104-(18+28)=58/104

or, just add up the gumballs that are not blue or pink (the red and white ones) and divide that by 104;

(24+34)/104=58/104

hope this made sense! : )

i just took the test, the correct answer is .. 31.5 in.
