A lottery game has balls numbered 1 through 15. What is the probability of selecting an even numbered ball or a 13?

8 / 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample space = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15}

Required outcome :

Even numbers = (2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14) or 13

Total required outcomes = 8

Probability = required outcome / Total possible outcomes

P(even number or 13) = 8 / 15

1; 35 is the ratio
