उत्तर
\[\text{ Number of red balls }= 3\]
\[\text{ Number of black balls } = 5 \]
\[\text{ Number of white balls } = 4\]
\[\text{ Total number of balls } = 3 + 5 + 4 = 12\]
\[\text{ Therefore, the total number of cases is } 12 . \]
\[\text{ Since there are 4 white balls, the number of favourable outcomes is 4 } . \]
\[P\left( \text{ a white ball } \right) = \frac{\text{ Number of favourable cases }}{\text{ Total number of cases }} = \frac{4}{12} = \frac{1}{3}\]
