Question:
A bag contains {eq}1313 {/eq} blue marbles, {eq}99 {/eq} red marbles and {eq}1010 {/eq} yellow marbles. What is the probability of randomly drawing a yellow marble?
Probability:
Probability is a branch of mathematics which tells about the possibility of an event to occur.
The formula to calculate the probability of any event to occur is as mentioned below:
{eq}\begin{align} \displaystyle P(E) = \frac{Number \ of \ favorable \ outcomes}{Total \ number \ of \ possible \ outcomes} \end{align} {/eq}
where P(E) = Probability of any event to occur.
