Total marbles in the bag:
Green marbles = 3
Blue marbles = 4
Orange marbles = 2
Total marbles = 3 + 4 + 2 = 9
Marbles that are not orange = Green marbles + Blue marbles = 3 + 4 = 7
Formula Used:
Probability = (Favorable outcomes) / (Total outcomes)
Calculation:
Favorable outcomes = Number of marbles that are not orange = 7
Total outcomes = Total marbles = 9
Probability of not getting an orange marble:
⇒ Probability = 7 / 9
The probability of not getting an orange marble is 7/9 .
