Answer:
[tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] probability of drawing a bead which is not a pearl
Step-by-step explanation:
For each bead that you draw, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it is a pearl bead, or it is not. The sum of these probabilities = 100% = 1.
So
2/3 probability of drawing a pearl bead.
p probability of drawing a non pearl bead.
What is the probability of drawing a bead which is not a pearl?
[tex]p + \frac{2}{3} = 1[/tex]
[tex]p = 1 - \frac{2}{3}[/tex]
[tex]p = \frac{3*1 - 2}{3}[/tex]
[tex]p = \frac{1}{3}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] probability of drawing a bead which is not a pearl
