5/7, there is a 2/7 or 10/35 chance that you will get green apple, take the remaining of the answer which is 5/7.

Green apple- 10
Strawberry- 12
Lemon- 3
Grape-10
Total- 34
Not your favorite so you need to subtract 34 minus your favorite which is 10 which leaves you to 24 so there is a 24/34 chance you will not be your favorite
