Laura’s birthday party has three different colored tables: pink, purple, and green. The pink table has 8 seats. The purple table has 10 seats, and the green table has 8 seats. Laura will assign seats as her friends arrive at her party. What is the probability that the first guest at the party will be placed at the pink table?

Sagot :

Hello! to find probability, first we need to add the amount of seats together which will give us the total.

8+10+8=26

if there is 26 seats and 8 of them are pink, then the probability of laura’s friend getting a pink seat is 8/26, or 4/13 simplified.
