4.a bag contains 4 green and 4 red balls. two balls are drawn one by one. what will be the probability that the first drawing gives green ball and second drawing a red ball, in case the first ball drawn was not replaced before drawing the second one.

Respuesta :

The probability that the first drawing gives green ball and second drawing a red ball is 2/7

Number of green balls = 4 green balls

Number of red balls = 4 red balls

Total number of balls in the bag = 4 + 4

= 8 balls

The probability = Number of favorable outcomes / Total number of outcomes

The probability of getting green balls in first draw = 4 / 8

= 1/2

First ball drawn was not replaced before drawing the second one

The probability of getting red ball in second draw = 4 / 7

The probability that the first drawing gives green ball and second drawing a red ball = (4/8) × (4/7)

= 2/7

Hence, the  probability that the first drawing gives green ball and second drawing a red ball is 2/7
