    Answer:6/7

    Step-by-step explanation:

    total 17 + 7+4=28

    what u want = 17+7=24

    all you have = 28

    24/28=12/14=6/7

    Total amount of marbles:

    17 + 7 + 4 = 17 + 11 = 28

    Amount of marbles that are either orange or pink:

    17 + 7 = 24

    To find the probability that the marble is pink or orange, we divide the amount of orange and pink marbles by the total amount:

    P = 24/28 = 6/7

    So the answer is A. 6/7
