PROBABILITY 1


When a die is tossed, find the probability of having a multiple of 2 number.

Solution

n(E) = {2,4,6}=3;            n(S) ={1,2,3,4,5,6}=6;           

P(E)= n(E)
          n(S)

P(E)= 3 1
          62

P(E)= 1
          2

Hence probability of getting a prime number is 1/2

TRY THIS……………………………………
