A bag of balloons consists of 47 white balloons, 5 yellow balloons, and 10 black balloons. What is the approximate likelihood that a balloon chosen randomly from the bag will be black?
16%
First, calculate the total number of balloons in the bag: 47+5+10=62.
10 of these are black, so divide 10 by 62. Then multiply by 100 to express the probability as a percentage: 10/62 = 0.16
