MCQ - 138-12905

Question:

In a box, there are 8 red, 7 blue and 6 green balls. One ball is picked up randomly. What is the probability that it is neither blue nor green?

  1. 2/3
  2. 8/21
  3. 3/7
  4. 8/21

Correct Answer: B

Explanation:

Total number of balls = (8 + 7 + 6) = 21

Let E = event that the ball drawn is neither blue nor green = event that the ball drawn is red.

Therefore, n(E) = 8.

P(E) = 8/21.
