Problem

A fruit bowl contains 4 green apples, 7 red apples, and 5 yellow apples. What is the probability that a randomly selected apple will NOT be red?

Solution

For this case we can find the total number of apples like this:

4+7+5= 16 apples

And the number of apples not red are:

4 + 5= 9 apples

Then the probability of being not red would be:

p = 9/16
