If three coins are tossed simultaneously, find the probability of the following events

Event A: To get no head.

योग

उत्तर

Sample space,

S = {HHH, HHT, HTH, THH, HTT, THT, TTH, TTT}

∴ n(S) = 8

Let A be the event of getting no head.

∴ A = {TTT}

∴ n(A) = 1

∴ P(A) = `("n"("A"))/("n"("S"))`

∴ P(A) = `1/8`

A card is drawn from a well shuffled pack of 52 playing cards. Find the probability of the event, the card drawn is a red card.

Activity: Let ‘S’ be the sample space.

∴ n(S) = 52

Event A: Card drawn is a red card.

∴ Total red cards = `square` hearts + 13 diamonds

∴ n(A) = `square`

∴ P(A) = `square/(n("S"))`    ......[Formula]

P(A) = `26/52`

P(A) = `square`
