A bag contains 3 red balls, 5 black balls and 4 white balls. A ball is drawn at random from the bag. What is the probability that the ball drawn is Black
उत्तर
Total number of possible outcomes = 12 {3 red balls, 5 black balls & 4 white balls}
E ⟶ event of getting black ball
No. of favourable outcomes = 5 {5 black balls}
Probability, P(E) =`"No.of favorable outcomes"/"Total no.of possible outcomes"`
P (E) =5/12

Why is tossing a coin considered to be a fair way of deciding which team should choose ends in a game of cricket?
If you toss a coin 6 times and it comes down heads on each occasion. Can you say that the probability of getting a head is 1? Give reasons.

The table given below shows the months of birth of 36 students of a class:
Month of birth |
Jan. | Feb. | Mar. | Apr. | May | June | July | Aug. | Sept. | Oct. | Nov. | Dec. |
No. of students |

A student is choosen at random. Fill in the boxes.
Total number of students = `square`
Let E be the event that the selected student is born in June.
Then,
Number of times event E occurs = `square`
So, P (selected student is born in June)
P(E) = `"Number of students born in June"/square`
= `square/square`
= `square`
