In a box, there are 8 red, 7 blue and 6 green balls. One ball is picked up randomly. What is the probability that it is neither blue nor green?
2/3
8/21
3/7
9/22
Explanation:
Total number of balls = (8 + 7 + 6) = 21
Let E = event that the ball drawn is neither blue nor green =e vent that the ball drawn is red.
Therefore, n(E) = 8.
P(E) = 8/21.
Total number of balls = (8 + 7 + 6) = 21
Let E = event that the ball drawn is neither blue nor green =e vent that the ball drawn is red.
Therefore, n(E) = 8.
P(E) = 8/21.
