To know the opinion of the students about the subject statistics, a survey of 200 students was conducted. The data is recorded in the following table.
| Opinion | Number of students |
| like | 135 |
| dislike | 65 |
Find the probability that a student chosen at random
(i) likes statistics, (ii) does not like it
उत्तर
Total number of students = 135 + 65 = 200
(i) Number of students liking statistics = 135
`"P(Students liking statistics) "=135/200=27/40`
(ii) Number of students who do not like statistics = 65
`"P(Students not liking statistics) "=65/200=13/40`
