    A bag contains 20 black and 22 white balls. One ball is drawn at random. What is the probability that the ball drawn is white?

    A 11/21 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 8/21 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    D 10/21 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution
