  1. The total numbers of outcomes i.e. pens = 144

    Given, numbers of defective pens = 20

    ∴ The numbers of non defective pens = 144-20 = 124

    P(E) = (Number of favourable outcomes/ Total number of outcomes)

    (i) Total numbers events in which she will buy them = 124

    So, P (buying) = 124/144 = 31/36 = 0.86

    (ii) Total numbers events in which she will not buy them = 20

    So, P (not buying) = 20/144 = 5/36 = 0.138
