Question

A bag has 24 balls coloured pink, violet, black and white. The number of balls of each colour is the same. A ball is drawn from the bag. Calculate the probability of drawing a pink ball, a violet ball, a black ball and a white ball respectively.​

Answer 1

Answer:

1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Total colours = 4

total balls of each colour = 24/4 = 6

probability of drawing a pink, violet, black and white ball is 1/4

Answer 2

Answer:

24 balls coloured pink, violet, black and white

n (sample space) = 24

4 different types of balls we have,

so no of balls of each colour = 24/4 =6

6 balls of pink, 6 balls of violet, 6 balls of of black and 6 balls of white.

let A be the event such that drawing a pink ball

n (A) = 6

$p \: (a) = \frac{n(a)}{n(s)} = \frac{6}{24} = \frac{1}{4}$

so, probability of drawing a pink ball, a violet ball, a black ball and a white ball respectively will be equal to 1/4
