Answer:

1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 24 coins total. 3 of them are quarters. So Jillian has a 3 in 24 chance of picking up a quarter. Simplifying 3/24 we get 1/8

The probability of randomly picking a quarter is P = 0.125

How to get the probability?

If we assume that all the coins have the same probability of being randomly picked, the probability of picking a particular type of coin is equal to the quotient between the number of coins of that type that we have, and the total number of coins.

In this case, we have 3 quarters, and a total of:

T = (6 + 7 + 8 + 3) = 24

Then the probability of randomly picking a quarter is:

P = 3/24 = 0.125
