Answer 2

⚫Given :

Number of white balls = 3

Probability of getting white balls =3/5

⚫To Find :

The number of red balls in the bag.

⚫Formula applied :

$Probability = \frac{number \: of \: events}{total \: number \: of \: outcomes}$

⚫Solution :

Let the number of red balls be x.

Probability of white balls = 3 /5

So, from here we get to know that there are 3 white balls and total there are 5 balls.

Total balls = white balls +red ball

5 = 3 + x

5 - 3 = 2 = x

Thus, there are only 2 red balls.
