Answer:

Probability = 16.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Total marbles 9

Choosing 2 red = [tex]4C_2[/tex]

Choosing 2 marbles from 9 marbles = [tex]9C_2[/tex]

Probability percent of choosing 2 red marbles from 9 marbles

                                                          [tex]\frac{4C_2}{9C_2} = \frac{1}{6} \times 100 = 0.1667 \times 100 = 16.7[/tex]

                             

Answer:

16.6

Step-by-step explanation:

4+3+2=9 marbles

4=red

4/9*3/8=1/6

1/6= 16.6
