3. Sammy counts the number of flowers in one section of a piece of fabric. He counts 18 yellow flowers, 16 pink flowers and 6 blue flowers. There are 720 flowers on the piece of fabric. When selected one flower at random from the fabric, which of the following statements is true? *

P(Y) = 18/720 = 0.025

P(P) = 16/720 = 0.022

P(B) = 6/720 = 0.0083

Step-by-step explanation:

I couldn't find the options but I will try to help you considering that the question is about probabilities.

Let the events be:

We can define the probability of an event X as:

P(X) = number of favorable outcomes for event X / total number of outcomes

The total number of outcomes is 720 (total number of flowers in the piece of fabric).

When selected one flower at random from the fabric, the probability that a yellow flower is selected is:

P(Y) = 18/720 = 0.025

When selected one flower at random from the fabric, the probability that a pink flower is selected is:

P(P) = 16/720 = 0.022

When selected one flower at random from the fabric, the probability that a blue flower is selected is:

P(B) = 6/720 = 0.0083
