What is Probability?

Probability means possibility. It is a branch of mathematics that deals with the occurrence of a random event.

  • Number of solid Color ties= 4
  • Number of cartoon ties= 3
  • Number of stripped ties= 5

Total Number of ties= 4+3+5 =12

Probability of not choosing the solid color tie

=[tex]\frac{Total\; ties- \; Number\; of \;Solid\; ties}{Total\; number \;of \;ties}[/tex]

=[tex]\frac{12-4}{12}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{8}{12}[/tex]

=[tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]
