a bag has 5 red balls and 4 green balls A ball is drawn from the bag without looking into bag what is to probability of getting a red ball​

Answers 2

Answer:

5/9

Step-by-step explanation:

probability of an event = number of trial which is expected outcome/ total number of trials

total trials = 5+4=9

P(e) = 5/9

The probability of getting a red ball = 5/9

Given :

  • A bag has 5 red balls and 4 green balls

  • A ball is drawn from the bag without looking into bag

To find :

The probability of getting a red ball

Solution :

Step 1 of 3 :

Find total number of possible outcomes

The bag has 5 red balls and 4 green balls

Total number of balls = 5 + 4 = 9

So total number of possible outcomes = 9

Step 2 of 3 :

Find total number of possible outcomes for the event

Let A be the event that of getting a red ball

The bag has 5 red balls

So total number of possible outcomes for the event A is 5

Step 3 of 3 :

Find the probability

Hence the required probability

= P(A)

[tex]\displaystyle \sf{ = \frac{Number \: of \: favourable \: cases \: to \: the \: event \: A }{Total \: number \: of \: possible \: outcomes }}[/tex]

[tex] \displaystyle \sf{ = \frac{5}{9} }[/tex]
