Mackenzie · Answer 1

Silver keys = 4

Gold keys = 5

Total number of keys = 9

probability of getting a silver key = P (4/9)

Step-by-step explanation:

P (4/9) because 4 keys are silver among 9 keys. Probability is the number of chosen matter divided by the total number of matters.

The answer would be 4/9, which cannot be simplified.
