What is the probability of the event that a number chosen from 1 to 50 is a prime number?
पर्याय
`3/10`
`1/2`
`1/4`
`3/25`
उत्तर
`3/10`
Explanation:
S = {1, 2, ..... , 50}
∴ n(S) = 50
Let A be the event of getting a prime number.
∴ A = {2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17 ,19, 23, 29, 31, 37, 41, 43, 47}
∴ n(A) = 15
∴ P(A) = `("n"("A"))/("n"("S")) = 15/50 = 3/10`

If one die is rolled, then find the probability of the following event by completing the activity.
Event A: The number on the upper face is prime.
Activity: Let ‘S’ be the sample space.
S = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
∴ n(S) = 6
Event A: Prime number on the upper face.
A = {`square`}
∴ n(A) = 3
P(A) = `square/(n(S))` .....[Formula]
= `square/6`
∴ P(A) = `1/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.
Event A: it is coffee chocolate.
Activity: Let ‘S’ be the sample space.
∴ n(S) = 5 + 6 + 2 = 13
Event A: it is a coffee chocolate.
