Question

A bag contains 6 red balls 3 blue balls and 8 green balls A ball is drawn randomly from the bag find the probability that a ball drawn is blue

Answer 1

Hey mate,your answer:
P(getting a blue ball)=No.of favourable outcomes/Total no.of possible outcomes=3/17

Answer 2

________________________________

$\large\mathsf\red{Q \ - \ What \ is \ Probability \ ?}$

$\mathsf\blue{A \ - \ It \ can \ be \ defined \ as \ the \ total}$
$\mathsf\blue{ number \ of \ possible \ outcomes.}$

_________________________________

$\huge\mathfrak{Solution :}$

$\large\mathsf\green{Given \ :-}$

$\mathsf{Red \ balls \ = \ 6}$

$\mathsf{Blue \ balls \ = \ 3}$

$\mathsf{Green \ balls \ = \ 8}$

$\mathsf{Total \ number \ of \ outcomes \ = \ 6 + 3 + 8}$
$\mathsf{= \ 17}$

$\mathsf{Favourable \ outcomes \ of \ getting \ a \ blue}$
$\mathsf{ball \ = \ 3}$

$\mathsf{P(x) \ = \ Favourable \ outcomes / Total}$
$\mathsf{outcomes}$

$\mathsf{P(getting \ a \ blue \ ball) \ = \ 3 / 17}$

$\mathsf{Hence, \ The \ probability \ of \ getting \ a \ blue}$
$\mathsf{ball \ is \ =>}$

$\large\textbf\pink{= 3 / 17 \ or \ 0.17}$
