Answer 2

Answer:

The P(yellow) = 11/15

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we have;

P(not yellow) = 4/15

Mathematically, the addition of the probability of an event and its complement adds up to be 1

The complement we have here is P(yellow)

Thus, mathematically we have;

P(not yellow) + P(yellow) = 1

P(yellow) = 1 - P(not yellow)

From the question P(not yellow) = 4/15

Plugging this value, we have;

P(yellow) = 1 - 4/15 = 11/15
