Question

From a bag of red and blue balls, the probability of picking a red ball is x/2. Find “x” if the probability of picking a blue ball is ⅔.​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Here, there are only red and blue balls.

P(picking a red ball) + P(picking a blue ball) = 1

x/2 + ⅔ = 1

=> 3x + 4 = 6

=> 3x = 2

Or, x = ⅔
