There are 30 cards in a box, each bearing one of the numbers from 1 to 30. One card is drawn at random from the box. Find the probability of event that the card drawn shows a number which is a multiple of 5
उत्तर
Sample space,
S = {1, 2, 3,…, 30}
∴ n(S) = 30
Let A be the event that the card drawn shows a number which is a multiple of 5.
∴ A = {5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30}
∴ n(A) = 6
∴ P(A) = `("n"("A"))/("n"("S"))`
∴ P(A) = `6/30`
∴ P(A) = `1/5`

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`
