    None of these

    Explanation

    Let S be the sample space. Then, total number of balls = (4 + 6 + 8 + 10) = 28 balls Thus, n(S) = 28 Let E = event that the ball drawn is black ∵ There are 10 black balls in the bag Thus, n(E) = 10 ∴ Probability of occurrence of event; P(E) = n(E)/n(S) = 10/28 = 5/14
