Correct option is: A)\(\frac 3{16}\)

There are 6 red marbles, 3 blue marbles and 7 green marbles in the bag.

\(\therefore\) Total No of marbles in the bag = 6+3=7= 16

\(\therefore\) Probability that selected marble is blue = \(\frac {Total \,No \,of \,blue \,marbles}{Total \,No\, of \,marbles \,in \,the \,bag}\)= \(\frac 3{16}\)
