प्रश्न
A box contains 36 cards, bearing only one number from 1 to 36 on each. If one card is drawn at random, find the probability of an event that the card drawn bears, a prime number
उत्तर
Sample space,
S = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10,
11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20,
21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30,
31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36}
∴ n(S) = 36
Let B be the event that the card drawn bears a prime number.
∴ B = {2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31}
∴ n(B) = 11
∴ P(B) = `("n"("B"))/("n"("S"))`
∴ P(B) = `11/36`

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`

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.
Activity : Let ‘S’ is the sample space.
∴ n(S) = 5 + 6 + 2 = 13
Event B: it is a peppermint chocolate.
∴ n(B) = `square`
∴ P(B) = `square/("n"("S"))` .......[Formula]
P(B) = `square/13`

In the adjoining figure, the arrow rests on any number, after the rotation of the disc. The probability that it will rest on any of the numbers on the disc is equal. Let A be any random event. To find the probability of A, fill in the boxes.
(1) S = `square`
(2) n(S) = `square`
(3) Let A be the event that arrow points at the number which is perfect cube.
A = `square`
∴ n(A) = `square`
(4) ∴ P(A) = `(n(A))/(n(S)) = square/square = square`
