Question

A cricketer gets a century in every 4 matches.
What is the probability that he gets a score less than 99 in 4 days.

Probability, Exercise -7.2

Answer 1

A cricketer scores one 100 in every 4 day. Thus he scores less than 100 in other 3 matches.

So Probability = Possible outcomes / Total outcomes.

=3/4

=0.75

Thus, 0.75 is the probability that the cricketer scores less than 99 in 4 matches.

Answer 2

A cricketer scores one 100 in every 4 day.

he scores less than 100 in other 3 matches. 

Probability = favorable  outcomes / Total outcomes.

                 = 3/4
