Question
There are 72 balls in a box, consisting of Black, White,
and Purple balls. The chance of choosing a black ball is (1/6), and the number of purple balls is four times the number of white balls. Determine the probability of selecting a purple ball from the box.Solution
ATQ,
Number of black balls in the box = 72 × (1/6) = 12 Remaining balls = 72 – 12 = 60 Let, number of purple balls and white balls be 4x and x, respectively, Therefore, 4x + x = 60 5x = 60 x = 60/5 = 12 So, number of purple balls = 4 × 12 = 48 Therefore, required probability = 48/72 = 2/3
