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 prime number
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 B be the event that the card drawn bears a prime number.
∴ B = {2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31}
∴ n(B) = 11
∴ P(B) = `("n"("B"))/("n"("S"))`
∴ P(B) = `11/36`

A box contains 5 strawberry chocolates, 6 coffee chocolates, and 2 peppermint chocolates. If one of the chocolates is picked from the box at random, find the probability of the following events by completing the activity.
Event A: it is coffee chocolate.
Activity: Let ‘S’ be the sample space.
∴ n(S) = 5 + 6 + 2 = 13
Event A: it is a coffee chocolate.
∴ n(A) = `square`
∴ P(A) = `square/("n"("S"))` .......[Formula]
P (A) = `square/13`
