Practice makes perfect
We know that we randomly choose one marble from the bag. We want to find the number of ways in which we can choose a green marble. We can do so by calculating the number of green marbles on the diagram. Let's do it!
We can see on the diagram that there is 1 green marble. This means that we can choose green in 1 way.
We want to find the favorable outcomes of choosing green. We can recall that the outcomes of a specific event, in this case choosing green, are called favorable outcomes. We can determine the favorable outcomes using our diagram.
The favorable outcomes include choosing the 1 green marble from the bag. We can use this information to list the favorable outcomes!
