A bag holds 1 blue block and 3 yellow blocks. How many green blocks should be added to the bag to make the probability of randomly selecting a green block from the bag equal to 1/2 ?

\(n\) - the number of green blocks which is equal to the number of favourable events
\(1+3+n=4n\) - the number of all blocks, which is equal to the number of all possible outcomes

\(P(A)=\dfrac{n}{4+n}=\dfrac{1}{2}\\ 1\cdot( 4+n)=2\cdot n\\ 4+n=2n\\ 2n-n=4\\ n=4\)
