Answer 1

`\text{Probability}=\frac{Number\text{ of favourable outcomes}}{Total\text{ number of outcomes}}`

Let's get the total number of the items=1+3+4+3+2+3=16items

Let us get the probability of items wit

Step 1

No of items with white or red colour = 4 = No of required items

Step 2'

Find the probability of choosing items with red or white colour

`(4)/(16)=(1)/(4)`
