Probability of Golf Balls Color Selection
What is the probability of selecting each color of golf ball?
The golf ball is two times as likely to be orange as it is to be pink. Therefore, option C is correct.
Probability can be described as the branch of mathematics of numerical descriptions of how likely an event is to take place. The probability of an event can be a number between 0 and 1, where 0 indicates the impossibility of the event and 1 shows certainty.
Given the number of pink balls is 4, white balls is 11, orange balls is 8, and green balls is 18. The total number of balls is 41.
When Felix picks a golf ball at random, the probability of it being pink is 4/41, white is 11/41, orange is 8/41, and green is 18/41. This means that the golf ball is two times as likely to be orange as it is to be pink.
