Question

In a bag, red, green and blue marbles are there. The probability of getting a red marble is

• A. $\frac{12}{35}$
• B. $\frac{8}{35}$
• C. $\frac{15}{35}$

Answer 1

The correct option is B $\frac{8}{35}$

Probability = $\frac{Favourableoutcomes}{Totaloutcomes}$

Total outcome = 8 + 12 + 15

= 35

Favourable outcome = 8

Hence, probability = $\frac{8}{35}$

Hence, the probability of getting a red marble = $\frac{8}{35}$
