Given:
A batch of jelly beans,
38 red(R), 32 blue(B), 25 purple(P), 25 orange(O), 58 green(G) and 63 yellow(Y).
Find:
probability of randomly picking 4 beans, all of which are either green or yellow.
Solution:
total number of beans =
total number of beans either yellow or green =
Probability of picking 4 yellow or green
=
Answer: probability of picking 4 beans either yellow or green is 0.23 (to two decimal places).
