Question

What is the probability of getting a marble which is not red from a bag containing 3 black, 8 yellow, 2 red and 5 white marbles?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

so first add all the marbles

3+8+2+5 = 18

now subtract 2 red balls

18-2 = 16

therefore the ans is

16/18 that can be cut by 2

so the final ans is

8/9

Answer 2

Answer:

The probability of getting marbles which is not red is 8/9.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

• number of black marbles 3,
• number of yellow marble: 8
• number of red marble: 2
• number of white marble: 5

To find: the probability of getting marbles which is not red.

lets add all the marbles first:

3+8+2+5= 18

now subtracting 2 red marbles

18-2= 16

Therefore the answer is

16/18 that can be cut by 2

So we can say the probability of getting marble which is not red is 8/9
