    Sample space=$(1,2,3,4,5,6)$ odd numbers=${1,3,5}$ $\therefore$ P(odd numbers)=$\dfrac{3}{6}=\dfrac{1}{2}$

    Sample space=(1,2,3,4,5,6)
    odd numbers={1,3,5}
    \therefore P(odd numbers)=\dfrac{3}{6}=\dfrac{1}{2}

    What is the propability of obtaining a prime number in a single toss of a fair die?

    Sample space=$(1,2,3,4,5,6)$ Prime numbers=${2,3,5}$ $\therefore$ P(Prime numbers)=$\dfrac{3}{6}=\dfrac{1}{2}$

    Sample space=(1,2,3,4,5,6)
    Prime numbers={2,3,5}
    \therefore P(Prime numbers)=\dfrac{3}{6}=\dfrac{1}{2}

    What is the propability of obtaining a multiple of 2 in a single toss of a fair die?

    Sample space=${1,2,3,4,5,6}$ multiples of 2=${2,4,6}$ $\therefore$ P(multiples of 2)=$\dfrac{3}{6}=\dfrac{1}{2}$

    Sample space={1,2,3,4,5,6}
    multiples of 2={2,4,6}
    \therefore P(multiples of 2)=\dfrac{3}{6}=\dfrac{1}{2}

  5. Asked: December 20, 2020In:

    The propability that a number selected at random from 1 to 40 is a multiple of 7 is?

    Sample space=${1,2,3,4,5,6...40}$ multiple of 7 within 1 and 40=${7,14,21,28,35}$ $\therefore$ P(multiple of 7)=$\dfrac{5}{40}=\dfrac{1}{8}$

    Sample space={1,2,3,4,5,6...40}
    multiple of 7 within 1 and 40={7,14,21,28,35}
    \therefore P(multiple of 7)=\dfrac{5}{40}=\dfrac{1}{8}
