Solution

The correct option is A 23
A bag contains 3 black, 4 white and 5 red balls. One ball is drawn at random. Find the probability that it is either a black ball or red ball.
number of red and black ball/(total number of balls)
number of red and black balls=5+3
total number of balls =5+3+4
P(E)=812=23
