A box contains 36 cards, bearing only one number from 1 to 36 on each. If one card is drawn at random, find the probability of an event that the card drawn bears, a number divisible by 3
उत्तर
Sample space,
S = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10,
11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20,
21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30,
31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36}
∴ n(S) = 36
Let C be the event that the card drawn bears a number divisible by 3.
∴ C = {3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 27, 30, 33, 36}
∴ n(C) = 12
∴ P(C) = `("n"("C"))/("n"("S"))`
∴ P(C) = `12/36`
∴ P(C) = `1/3`

An urn contains 12 red balls, 15 yellow balls and 18 blue balls. A ball is choosen at random, then to find the probability of choosing a blue and red coloured balls, fill in the boxes.
Total number of balls = 12 + `square` + `square` = `square`
(1) Let E be the event that the choosen ball is blue.
Number of blue balls = `square`
Thus,
P(E) = `"Number of blue balls"/"Total number of balls"`
= `square/square`
(2) Let F be the event that the choosen ball is red.
Number of red balls = `square`
Thus,
P(F) = `square/"Total number of balls"`
= `square/square`
