Question

A bag has 4 red balls and 2 yellow balls the balls are identical in all respects other the colour. A ball is drawn from the bag without looking into the bag. What in probability of getting a red ball? Is it more or less than geting a yellow ball?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Correct option is

B

3

2

Probability of an event P(E)=

TotalNo.ofOutcomes

No.ofFavourableOutcomes

Here,

Favourable Outcomes = Getting a Red ball

Number of Favourable Outcomes = Number of Red Balls =4

Total Number of Outcomes =6 = Total Number of Balls

⇒P(E)=

6

4

=

3

2

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of an event P(E)=  TotalNo.ofOutcomes

                                            _____________________

                                            No.ofFavourableOutcomes

Here,

Favourable Outcomes = Getting a Red ball

Number of Favourable Outcomes = Number of Red Balls =4

Total Number of Outcomes =6 = Total Number of Balls

PE = $\frac{4}{6} = \frac{2}{3}$
