The probability that it is not red is 0.6.

It is the ratio of total favorable outcome to the total number of outcomes.
The value of probability lies between 0 and 1.

Given: A bag contains 10 marbles.

Number of red marbles = 4

Number of blue marbles = 3

Number of white marbles = 2

Number of yellow marble = 1

A marble is drawn at random.

We have to find the probability that the marble is not red.

Hence, the marble can be blue, white and yellow.

∴ Apart from red marbles there are total of 6 marbles in the bag.

⇒ Total favorable outcomes = 6

⇒ Total number of outcomes = 10

Probability = (Total number of favorable outcomes) / (Total number of outcomes)

⇒ Probability = 6/10

⇒ Probability = 0.6

Therefore, the probability that it is not red is 0.6.
