  • Question 1/10
    1 / -0

    A box contains 300 screws in which one fifteenth are rusted. One screw is taken out at random from the box. Find the probability of getting good screw.
    Solutions

     Total screw = 300

    Number of possible outcomes = 300

    Rusted screws = One fifteenth of 300

    =

    = 20

    Number of remaining good screw = 300 – 20

    = 280

    Number of favorable outcomes = 280

    Probability of getting good screw = P(E)

    P(E) =

    =

  • Question 2/10
    1 / -0

    Raju and Hemu are friends they were both born in 1995, what is the probability that they have same birthday?
    Solutions

     The year 1995 is a non-leap year out of two friends say Raju’s birthday can be any day of 365 days in a non-leap year also Hamu’s birthday can be any day of 365 days of the same year so the total number of outcomes is = 365, we assume all those 365 outcomes are equally likely.

    Let E be the event (Raju and Hemu have the same birthday)

    Then the number of favorable outcomes to the event

    n(E) = 1

    P(E) =

    =

  • Question 3/10
    1 / -0

    A letter is chosen from the word TIGER, what is the probability that it is vowel.
    Solutions

     Total number of letters = 5

    Number of vowels in the word TIGER = 2

    P(E) =

    P(E) =

  • Question 4/10
    1 / -0

    A piggy bank contains two hundred 50 paise coins, 70 ₹1 coin, 50 ₹ 2 coin and 30 ₹ 5 coins, equally likely that one of the coins will fall down. What is the probability that the coin will not be ₹ 5 coin?
    Solutions

     Number of 50 paise coin = 200

    Number of 1₹ coin = 70

    Number of 2₹ coin = 50

    Number of 5₹ coin = 30

    Total number of coins = 200 + 70 + 50 + 30

    = 350

    Probability that coin will not be ₹ 5 coin

    P(E) =

    =

    =

    =

  • Question 5/10
    1 / -0

    In a simultaneous throw of two coins, the probability of getting at least one tail.
    Solutions

     Here S = [HH, HT, TH, TT]

    Let E = event of getting at least one tail = [HT, TH, TT]

    Therefore P(E) =

    =
