In a bag there are only red counters, blue counters and white counters.

number of red counters : number of blue counters : number of white counters=5:4:3 \text{number of red counters : number of blue counters : number of white counters} = 5 : 4 : 3 number of red counters : number of blue counters : number of white counters=5:4:3

A counter is taken at random from the bag.

Complete the table to show the probabilities of the counter being red, blue or white.
