Answer: P = 0.28

Step-by-step explanation:

If we pick it at random, the probability of selecting each tile must be equal. this means that the probability of picking a tile of a giving color is equal to the number of the tiles of that color divided the total number of tiles.

We have 14 beige tiles and 20 + 14 + 16 = 50 tiles in total.

Then the probability of piking a beige tile is:

P = 14/50 = 0.28
