Step-by-step explanation:
A container has 5 green, 4 yellow and 2 white marbles.
We need to find the probability of selecting a green marble.
The probability of getting an event is given by :
P(E) = favorable outcomes/no. of outcomes
The probability of getting green marble will be :
[tex]P(G) = \dfrac{5}{5+4+2}\\\\=\dfrac{5}{11}[/tex]
The probability of getting white marble will be :
[tex]P(W) = \dfrac{2}{5+4+2}\\\\=\dfrac{2}{11}[/tex]
Hence, this is the required solution.
