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.
∴ n(A) = `square`
∴ P(A) = `square/("n"("S"))` .......[Formula]
P (A) = `square/13`

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`

An urn contains 12 red balls, 15 yellow balls and 18 blue balls. A ball is choosen at random, then to find the probability of choosing a blue and red coloured balls, fill in the boxes.
Total number of balls = 12 + `square` + `square` = `square`
(1) Let E be the event that the choosen ball is blue.
Number of blue balls = `square`
Thus,
P(E) = `"Number of blue balls"/"Total number of balls"`
= `square/square`
(2) Let F be the event that the choosen ball is red.
Number of red balls = `square`
Thus,
P(F) = `square/"Total number of balls"`
= `square/square`
