a certain bag contains 100 balls â € ” 50 white , 30 green , 8 yellow , 9 red , and 3 purple . if a ball is to be chosen at random , what is the probability that the ball will be neither red nor purple ?
"according to the stem the ball can be white , green or yellow , so the probability is ( white + green + yellow ) / ( total ) = ( 50 + 30 + 8 ) / 100 = 88 / 100 = 0.88 . answer is d"
divide(subtract(100, add(9, 3)), 100)
