What is the probability that a leap year has 53 Sundays?
उत्तर
A leap year has 366 days i.e., 52 weeks and 2 days.
There are 52 Sundays in 52 weeks.
For the remaining 2 days,
Sample space is
S = {(Mon., Tue.), (Tue., Wed.), (Wed., Thur.),
(Thur., Fri.), (Fri., Sat.), (Sat., Sun.), (Sun., Mon.)}
∴ n(S) = 7
Let A be the event that the remaining two days are Sundays.
∴ A = {(Sat., Sun.), (Sun., Mon.)}
∴ n(A) = 2
∴ P(A) = `("n"("A"))/("n"("S"))`
∴ P(A) = `2/7`
∴ The probability that a leap year has 53 Sundays is `2/7`.

In the adjoining figure, the arrow rests on any number, after the rotation of the disc. The probability that it will rest on any of the numbers on the disc is equal. Let A be any random event. To find the probability of A, fill in the boxes.
(1) S = `square`
(2) n(S) = `square`
(3) Let A be the event that arrow points at the number which is perfect cube.
A = `square`
∴ n(A) = `square`
(4) ∴ P(A) = `(n(A))/(n(S)) = square/square = square`
