To calculate the probability of event A, divide the number of outcomes favorable to A by the total number of possible outcomes.
[tex]P(A)=\frac{favourable\text{ outcomes}}{total\text{ outcomes}}[/tex]so
Step 1
a)let
[tex]\begin{gathered} favourable\text{ outcomes=red balls = 4 \lparen there are 4 red balls\rparen=4} \\ total\text{ outcomes= total balls= 4 red+6 green=10 balls=10} \end{gathered}[/tex]b) now, replace in the formula and simplify
.
[tex]P(A)=\frac{4}{10}=\frac{2}{5}[/tex]therefore, the answer is
[tex]\frac{4}{10}[/tex]I hope this helps you
