Solution
A bag contains 3green, 4blue and 2orange marbles
TO FIND: Probability of not getting an orange marble
Total number of balls 3+4+2=9
Total number of non orange marbles that is green and blue balls is`3+4=7`
`"We know that PROBABILITY" = "Number of favourable event"/"Total number of event"`
Hence probability of getting a non orange ball is `7/9`
