Did you know that probability is the likelihood of an event occurring? In a box containing 5 red and 6 white balls, if one ball is drawn at random, we can determine the probability of certain outcomes. A. The probability of drawing a red or white ball is 100%. This is because all the balls in the box are either red or white, so no other options exist. B. The probability of not drawing a red ball is calculated by subtracting the probability of drawing a red ball from 100%. If there are 5 red balls and 11 total balls in the box, the probability of not drawing a red ball is 6/11, or approximately 54.5%. C. It is worth noting that the text does not mention the presence of yellow balls in the box. Hence, the probability of drawing a yellow ball cannot be determined based on the given information.
