What is the probability that a number selected at random from the numbers 3, 4, 5, ....9 is a multiple of 4?
उत्तर
numbers are 3, 4, 5, 6…9
TO FIND: Probability of Getting multiple of 4
Total number is 9−3+1=7
Numbers which are multiple of 4 between 3 and 9 are 4 and 8 Total number which are multiple of 4 between 3 to 9 is 4 and 8 is 2
`"We know that PROBABILITY" = "Number of favourable event"/"Total number of event"`
Hence probability of getting a number which is a multiple of 4 is `2/7`
Hence probability of getting a number which is a multiple of 4 is equal to `2/7`

In fig. 7 is shown a disc on which a player spins an arrow twice. The fraction `a/b` is formed, where 'a' is the number of sector on which arrow stops on the first spin and 'b' is the number of the sector in which the arrow stops on second spin. On each spin, each sector has equal chance of selection by the arrow. Find the probability that the fraction `a/b>1.`

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`
