Question

in a two wheeler shop there are 5 green scooter and 3 red scooter . find the probability of getting a green scooter not getting a green scooter​

Answer 1

Answer :

• Probability of green scooter is 5/8
• Probability of getting non-green scooter is 3/8

Explanation :

• Number of Green scooters = 5
• Number of red scooters = 3

➠ Total Number of Scooters = 5 + 3 ⇒ 8

$\rule{200}{1}$

1) Probability of getting a green scooter :

$\longrightarrow \sf{Probability \: = \: \dfrac{No. \: of \: green \: scooters}{Total \: no. \: of \: scolters}} \\ \\ \longrightarrow \sf{Probablity \: = \: \dfrac{5}{8}} \\ \\ \underline{\underline{\sf{Probability \: of \: Getting \: a \: green \: scooter \: is \: \dfrac{5}{8}}}}$

$\rule{200}{1}$

2) Getting non-green Scooter

➠ Non-Green Scooters = 8 - 5 = 3

$\longrightarrow \sf{Probability \: = \: \dfrac{No. \: of \: Non-Green \: scooters}{Total \: no. \: of \: scooters}} \\ \\ \longrightarrow \sf{Probablity \: = \: \dfrac{3}{8}} \\ \\ \underline{\underline{\sf{Probablity \: of \: Non-Green \: scooter \: is \: \dfrac{3}{8}}}}$

Answer 2

The simplest explanation to this question is:-

probability means a kind of prediction of happening or not happening something which can be described as

Probability = no of successful outcomes/no of total outcomes

total outcomes = 5 + 3 = 8

so, case 1

probability of getting green scooters

= 5/8

and, case 2

probability of not getting green scooter = 3/8

in this case indirectly the probability of getting red scooters

is asked.
