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

Event B: To get at least two heads.

योग

उत्तर

Sample space,

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

∴ n(S) = 8

Let B be the event of getting at least two heads

∴ B = {HHH, HHT, HTH, THH}

∴ n(B) = 4

∴ P(B) = `("n"("B"))/("n"("S"))`

∴ P(B) = `4/8`

∴ P(B) = `1/2`

If one die is rolled, then find the probability of the following event by completing the activity.

Event A: The number on the upper face is prime.

Activity: Let ‘S’ be the sample space.

S = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}  

∴ n(S) = 6

Event A: Prime number on the upper face.

A = {`square`}            

∴ n(A) = 3

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

= `square/6`

∴ P(A) = `1/square`
