if a jelly bean machine 16 pink jelly beans, 34 blue jelly beans, 24 black jelly beans, and 26 purple jelly beans, what is the probability t

24/100 is equal to 24%

 if a jelly bean machine has 16 pink jelly beans, 34 blue jelly beans, 24 black jelly beans, and 26 purple jelly beans, what is the probability that a jelly bean chosen at random will be black?

$$\small{\text{probability ~}} = \dfrac{ 24 \text{ black} } { 16 \small{\text{ pink } } + 34 \small{\text{ blue }} + 24 \small{\text{ black }} + 26 \small{\text{ purple }} } = \small{\dfrac{24}{100} = 0.24 = 24 \% }$$
