प्रश्न

A bag contains lemon flavoured candies only. Malini takes out one candy without looking into the bag. What is the probability that she takes out an orange flavoured candy?

लघु उत्तरीय

उत्तर

  • The bag contains lemon-flavoured candies only. It does not contain any orange-flavoured candies.
  • This implies that every time, she will take out only lemon-flavoured candies. Therefore, the event that Malini will take out an orange-flavoured candy is an impossible one. Hence, P (an orange flavoured candy) = 0
