Question
A bag contains cards numbered from 1 to 49. A card is drawn from the bag at random, after mixing the cards thoroughly. Find the probability that the number on the drawn card is an even prime number.
Solution
Total number of cards = 49
Total number of outcomes = 49
We know that there is only one even prime number, which is 2.
Total number of favourable outcomes = 1
∴ Required probability `="Total number of favourable outcomes"/"Total number of outcomes"=1/49`
