Answer:
Probability of picking Red ball is 27.5%
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Total Number of balls = 200
Number of White balls = 100
Number of Red balls = 55
Number of Black balls = 45
We need to find the probability of the ball picked to be red.
Solution:
Now we know that;
Probability is equal to number of Possible Outcomes divide by total number of Outcomes multiplied by 100.
framing in equation form we get;
[tex]P(Red) = \frac{\textrm{Number of Red balls}}{\textrm{Total Number of balls}} \times 100[/tex]
[tex]P(Red) = \frac{55}{200}\times100[/tex]
[tex]P(Red) = 27.5\%[/tex]
Hence Probability of picking Red ball is 27.5%.
