प्रश्न
A dice is thrown once. Find the probability of getting a number between 3 and 8.
उत्तर
Sample space = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
n(S) = 6
E = the possible even numbers between 3 and 8 = {4, 5, 6}
n(E) = 3
Probability of getting an even number between 3 and 8 = P(S)
= `("n"("E"))/("n"("S"))`
= `3/6`
= `1/2`

Two coins are tossed simultaneously. Complete the following activity to write the sample space and the given events A and B in the set form:
Event A: To get at least one head.
Event B: To get no head.
Activity:
Two coins are tossed simultaneously.
∴ Sample space is
S = `{square, HT, TH, square}`
Event A: To get at least one head.
∴ A = `{square, HT, TH}`
Event B: To get no head.
∴ B = `{square}`
Assertion (A): A die is thrown once and the probability of getting an even number is `2/3`.
Reason (R): The sample space for even numbers on a die is {2, 4, 6}.
