Answer:

3/5 probability

Step-by-step explanation:

30 red + 40 green + 15 yellow + 15 blue = the total number of jawbreakers

the total number of jawbreakers = 100 jawbreakers

30 red + 15 yellow + 15 blue = the total number of jawbreakers that aren't green

or

100 jawbreakers - 40 green jawbreakers = the total number of jawbreakers that aren't green

the total number of jawbreakers that aren't green = 60 jawbreakers

60/100 = probability that the jawbreaker isn't green

or

6/10

or

3/5
