Answer:

20/48 = 42%

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of beige tiles

  • 48 - 8 - 6 - 9 - 5
  • 40 - 6 - 9 - 5
  • 34 - 9 - 5
  • 25 - 5
  • 20 beige tiles

Probability (Beige)

  • No. of beige tiles / Total no. of tiles
  • 20/48 = 42%

Answer:

20/48 ≈ 42%

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of tiles = 48

Beige tiles = Total number of tiles - yellow - blue - green - red

                  = 48 - 8 - 6 - 9 - 5

                  = 20

[tex]\sf Probability\:of\:an\:event\:occurring = \dfrac{Number\:of\:ways\:it\:can\:occur}{Total\:number\:of\:possible\:outcomes}[/tex]

[tex]\implies \textsf{P(coin landing on beige tile)}=\sf\dfrac{20}{48} \approx42\%[/tex]
