Answer:

3/7  /    42.8% chance

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 6 striped balls (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14) and 8 (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8) solid colored balls. So, 6 / 14 balls are striped.

(6 / 14  = 3 / 7)

this means that the probability of a ball being striped has the odds of 3/7

(3/7 = about 42.8% chance)
