12 defective pens are accidentally mixed with 132 good ones. It is not possible to just look at a pen and tell whether or not it is defective. One pen is taken out at random from this lot. Determine the probability that the pen taken out is a good one.

total pens=132+12=144.and total good pens =132.hence, probability of pen taken out to be a good one is 132/144=66/72=33/36=11/13.

Defective pens = 12
Good pens = 132
Total pens = 12 +132 = 144
Probability = 132 / 144
= 0 .91 or 11 / 13
