Answer:

0.34

Step-by-step explanation:

because the probability of red is 20 and the probability of orange is 14 20 + 14 is 34.

Answer: 0.67

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of picking red is 0.13

The probability of picking orange is 0.20

The probability of picking either of these is 0.13+0.20 = 0.33

So the probability of picking neither of them is 1 - 0.33 = 0.67

There's a 67% of this happening.
