Millie bought three packages of zinnia seeds for red, orange and yellow flowers. She planted 34 seeds for red flowers, 33 for orange flowers, and 31 for yellow flowers in separate peat pots, but neglected to label the pots. What would be the probability that a peat pot picked at random would contain a seed for a yellow or an orange flowered plant?
