Answer:

The probability of drawing one red ball out of a bag containing 6 red, 5 white and 4 black balls is equal to the number of favorable events (picking 1 red ball) divided by the total number of possible outcomes (picking 1 ball out of a pool of 15). Therefore, the probability of drawing one red ball from this bag is 6/15, or 2/5.
