    Total amount of marbles:

    17 + 7 + 4 = 17 + 11 = 28

    Amount of marbles that are either orange or pink:

    17 + 7 = 24

    To find the probability that the marble is pink or orange, we divide the amount of orange and pink marbles by the total amount:

    P = 24/28 = 6/7

    So the answer is A. 6/7
