Question 51
A container has 30 gold medals, 22 silver medals and 18 bronze medals. If one medal is selected at random from the container, what is the probability that it is not a gold medal?
Total medals = 30 + 22 + 18 = 70
Number of non-gold medals = 22 + 18 = 40\[
P(\text{not gold}) = \dfrac{40}{70} = \dfrac{4}{7}\]
