Solution
In a bag containing 24 balls, 4 are blue, 11 are green and the rest are white. One ball is drawn at random. The probability that drawn ball is white in colour is `underlinebb(3/8)`.
Explanation:
The total number of balls in the bag is 24.
No. of white balls in bag = 9
∴ Probability P(E) = `"No. of favourable outcomes"/"Total number of possible outcomes"`
= `9/24`
= `3/8`
