Question

A basket contains 15 apples, 25 mangoes and 10 bananas. If a fruit is selected at random

from the basket, then the probability of not selecting an apple in?​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

favourable out comes/ Total outcones

15/15+25+10=15/50=3/10

Answer 2

Answer:

The probability of not selecting an apple from the basket is equal to 7/10.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, the number of apples in the basket = 15

The number of mangoes = 25

The number of bananas = 10

So, the total fruits in the basket = $=15+25+10 =50$

We know that the probability is equal to ratio of number of favorable outcomes by number of total possible outcomes.

The probability of getting a apple $=\frac{15}{50}=\frac{3}{10}$

Probability of not selecting an apple  = 1 - (probability of getting a apple)

The probability of not selecting an apple $=1-\frac{3}{10} =\frac{10-3}{10} =\frac{7}{10}$

Therefore, the  probability of not selecting an apple from the basket is 7/10.
