Suppose a box contains 20 balls. Ten balls are white and marked with the integers 1–10. The other 10 balls are red and marked with the integers 11–20. If one ball is selected, what is the probability that the ball will be white OR will be marked with an even number?

A. 1/4
B. 1/2
C. 3/4
D. 4/5
E. 9/10

P(white OR will be marked with an even number) = P(even)+P(white)-P(both)
= 10/20+10/20-5/20 = 15/20 = 3/4 IMO C

P white; 10/20 and even ; 10/20 but 5 is repetative as even in white ; 5/20
10/20+5/20 ; 15/20 ; 3/4
IMO C

A. 1/4
B. 1/2
C. 3/4
D. 4/5
E. 9/10

Probability of white (1-10) = 10/20
Probability of even number from 11-20 = 5/20

Required Probability = 10/20 + 5/20 = 15/20 = 3/4

IMO Option C

Pls Hit kudos if you like the solution
