    The probability that the ball dropped will fall on the grass in the garden area.

    A) \[\frac{363}{1120}\]

    B) \[\frac{723}{1120}\]

    C) \[\frac{11}{280}\]

    D) \[\frac{229}{240}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    The probability that the ball dropped will fall on the grass in the garden
    \[=\frac{\text{Area of grass}}{\text{Total area of garden}}\]
    Now, Area of grass = Area of garden - (Area of two flower beds + Area of pond + Area of patio).
    \[=40-\left( \frac{11}{7}+\frac{22}{7}+\frac{275}{28} \right)=40-\left( \frac{44+88+275}{28} \right)\] \[=40-\frac{407}{28}=\frac{1120-407}{28}=\frac{723}{28}\]
    \[\therefore \]  Required probability \[=\frac{723/28}{28}=\frac{723}{1120}\]
    So, Option [b] is correct
