Answer 1

probability= 12/26

since 26 total balls and 12 white balls

hope this helps!

Answer 2

Answer:

$\boxed{probability=\dfrac{6}{13}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

given:

1st basket :

white balls = 5

black balls= 7

total balls =12

second basket:

white balls= 7

black balls= 7

total = 14

$To\:find\:the\:probability\:of\:white\:ball\\\\\implies no.\: favorable\:events=12\:(including\:both\:baskets)\\\\\implies Total\:events=26\:(including\:both)\\\\\boxed{probability=\dfrac{Favourable\:event}{Total\:Events}}\\\\\implies \dfrac{12}{26}\\\\\boxed{The\:Probability\:of\:drawing\:white\:ball\:is\:\dfrac{12}{26}\implies \dfrac{6}{13}}$
