HI prathiksha !
probability of an event = favorable outcomes / total outcomes
Probability of getting a red candy = 50/350= 1/7
______________________________________________________________
probability of getting a purple candy = 50/350= 1/7
_____________________________________________________________
probability of getting a yellow candy = 100/350 = 2/7
_____________________________________________________________
probability of getting a blue candy =150/350= 3/7
______________________________________________________________
2) probability of getting a blue or red = 50 +150/350= 200/350= 4/7
