Question

What are the odds against randomly picking a green apple from a fruit bowl containing seven green apples, four red apples, and six blue ones?

Answer 1

Thanks, but how do I figure out the ones that are against.

Answer 2

Do, it this way probability of occuring of event = 7/17
probability of green not occuring = 10/17

odds against = (10/17)/(7/17) =10/7
