Best answer
No. of red ball = 10 No. of blue ball = 5 No. of green balls = 7 If a ball is drawn out of 22 balls (5 blue + 7 green + 10 red), then the total number of outcomes are n(S) = 22 (i) Let E1 = Event of getting a red ball ∴ n(E1) = 10 (ii) Let E2 = Event of getting a green ball n(E2) = 7 (iii) Let E3 = Event getting a red ball or a green ball i.e., not a blue ball. n(E3) = (10 + 7) = 17
