Answer:
Probability ball is an even numbered ball or a 4 [P(A or B)] = 9 / 19
Explanation:
Given:
Number of balls = 1 to 19
Find:
Probability ball is an even numbered ball or a 4
Computation:
Total even number = 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18
Probability to get even number P(A) = 9 / 19
Probability to get 4 number P(B) = 1 / 19
P(A and B) = 1 / 19 (4 common)
Probability ball is an even numbered ball or a 4 [P(A or B)]
P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) -P(A and B)
P(A or B) = [9 / 19] + [1 / 19] - [1 / 19]
Probability ball is an even numbered ball or a 4 [P(A or B)] = 9 / 19
