प्रश्न

A number is selected at random from the numbers 1 to 30. The probability that it is a prime number is

पर्याय

  • \[\frac{2}{3}\]

  • \[\frac{1}{6}\]

  • \[\frac{1}{3}\]

  • \[\frac{11}{30}\]

MCQ

उत्तर

Total number of outcomes = 30
The prime numbers from 1 to 30 are 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23 and 29.
So, the favourable number of outcomes are 10.
∴ P(selected number is a prime number) =\[\frac{\text{ Favourable number of outcomes }}{\text{ Total number of outcomes }} = \frac{10}{30} = \frac{1}{3}\]

A card is drawn at random from a pack of well shuffled 52 playing cards. Complete the following activity to find the probability that the card drawn is:

Event A: The card drawn is an ace.

Event B: The card drawn is a spade.

Activity: 'S' is the sample space.

∴ n(S) = 52

Event A: The card drawn is an ace.

∴ n(A) = `square`

P(A) = `square`  ......(formula)

∴ P(A) = `square/52`

∴ P(A) = `square/13`

Event B: The card drawn is a spade.

∴ n(B) = `square`

P(B) = `(n(B))/(n(S))`

∴ P(B) = `square/4`
