Answer: 2/9
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, we are told that
Kelsey received 9 birthday gifts from her friends and that three of the gifts were wrapped in yellow
paper. Also, 3 gifts were wrapped in red paper, 2 gifts were wrapped in purple paper, while the remaining
1 gift was wrapped in orange paper.
The probability that the first gift will be in purple paper will be the number of gifts in purple paper divided by the total number of gifts. This will be:
= 2/9
