Answer:

[tex] \frac{1}{2} [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Red: 2, Blue: 15, Black: 8, Green: 5

Total number of pencil = 2 + 15 + 8 + 5 = 30 pencils

probability of picking a blue pencil at random= Number of blue pencil divided by Total number of pencil

=

[tex] \frac{15}{30} [/tex]

=

[tex] \frac{1}{2} [/tex]
