Question

A bag contains 5 red and 3 white balls. A ball is selected at random,find the probability that the ball is (1) white (2) not White

Answer 1

Given Number of red balls=5,Number of white balls=3

Total Number of Balls =3+5=8 balls

Probability of getting a red ball =Total number of ballsNumber of red balls=8/5

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

no. of red balls=5

no. of white balls=3

so,total outcomes = 8

1.favourable outcomes=3

P(E)=favourable outcomes/total outcomes

=3/8

2.favourable outcomes=5

P(E)=5/8
