A single letter is selected at random from the word ‘Probability’. Find the probability that it is a vowel.
उत्तर
Possible outcomes = S = {'P', 'r', 'o', 'b', 'a', 'b', 'i', 'l', 'i', 't, 'y'}
n(S) = 11
Event of selection of vowels = E = {'o', 'a', 'i', 'i'}
n(E) = 4
Probability of selection of a vowel = P(S)
= `"n(E)"/"n(S)"`
= `4/11`

One card is randomly drawn from a pack of 52 cards. Find the probability that: the drawn card is red and a king.
In a set of 25 cards, each card bears only one number from 1 to 25. One card is drawn randomly. Write the sample space for this random experiment
Fill in the boxes:
Sunita choose a card from a well-shuffled deck of 52 cards.
Total number of cards, S = `square`
Let E be the event that the choosen card is a queen.
Number of queens = `square`
Thus, P(E) = `"Number of queens"/"Total number of cards" = square/square = square`
