Question

A bag has 4 red balls and 2 yellow balls. a ball is drawn from the bag without looking into the bag . what is the probability of getting a yellow ball​

Answer 1

AnswEr :

Total number of Balls = 4 red balls + 2 yellow balls

Total number of Balls = 4 + 2

Total number of Balls = 6 Balls

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

☯ Probability of getting a yellow ball :

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

By Using Formula of probability,

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

$\star\ \boxed{\sf P_{(e)} = \dfrac{Number \ of \ favourable \ outcomes}{Total \ Number \ of \ outcomes}}$

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀

Therefore,

$:\implies\sf Probability_{(yellow \ ball)} = \cancel\dfrac{2}{6} \\\\\\:\implies\boxed{\sf Probability_{(yellow \ ball)} = \dfrac{1}{3}}$

$\therefore$ Probability of getting a yellow ball is 1/3.
