Question
A die is thrown 450 times and frequencies of the outcomes 1,2,3,4,5,6 were noted as given in the following table
| outcomes | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 |
| Frequency | 73 | 70 | 74 | 75 | 80 | 78 |
(iii) a number > 4
Solution
Total number of times die is thrown = 450
Number of times greater than 4 come up = 80 + 78 = 158
P(>4 will come up on die) = `"Number of times (>4) come up"/"Total number of times the die is thrown"`
= `158/450 = 79/225`

A student is choosen at random. Fill in the boxes.
Total number of students = `square`
Let E be the event that the selected student is born in June.
Then,
Number of times event E occurs = `square`
So, P (selected student is born in June)
P(E) = `"Number of students born in June"/square`
= `square/square`
= `square`
