पर्याय
`1/2`
`2/5`
`3/10`
`5/9`
उत्तर
Total number of cards = 10.
Out of the given numbers, prime numbers are 2, 3, 5, 7 and 11.
Numbers of favourable outcomes = 5.
∴ P(getting a prime number) = `("Number of favourable outcomes")/"Number of all possible outcomes"`
Thus, the probability of getting a card with a prime number is `1/2`.
Hence, the correct answer is option `1/2`.
