Are you sure
I apologize for the mistake in my response. The correct answer is:
very unlikely
Can you explain
Yes, sure. To find the likelihood of randomly picking a white ball, we need to compare the number of white balls in the jar to the total number of balls.
In this case, there are 3 white balls out of 25 total balls.
So, the likelihood of randomly picking a white ball is 3/25, which is very unlikely because there are only 3 white balls out of 25 total balls.
