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 red nor green?
Options
- A2 3
- B3 4
- C1 3
- D1 2
Correct answer
C. 1 3
Step-by-step solution
It can be noted that if the ball is neither red or green, then it must be blue. Number of blue balls = 7 Now, total number of balls = 8 + 7 + 6 = 21 Thus, the probability is = 7 21 = 1 3
