Question

Numbers 1 to 10 are written on ten separate slips (one number on one slip), kept in a box and mixed well. One slip is chosen from the box without looking into it. What is the probability of .(i)      getting a number 6?(ii)     getting a number less than 6?(iii)    getting a number greater than 6?(iv)    getting a 1-digit number?

Answer 1

Total numbers of slip=10
1) P(getting a number 6)=1/10
2) P(getting a number less than 6)= 5/10=1/2.
3) P(getting a number more than 6)= 4/10=2/5.
4) P(getting a one digit number)= 9/10.
