A bag contains 3 red, 3 white and 3 green balls. One ball is taken out of the bag at random. What is the probability that the ball drawn is – red.
उत्तर
Total number of balls = 3 + 3 + 3
= 9
Number of red balls = 3
Therefore, required probability =`\text { Number of red balls}/text { Total number of balls}`
`=3/9`
`=1/3`
Hence, the probability that a red ball is drawn is `=1/3`.
