Question

A game of chance consists of spinning an arrow which comes to rest pointing at one of the numbers from 1 to 8 and these are equally like outcomes. What is the probability that is will point at:
8 b) an odd number
c) a number greater than 2 d) a number less than 9​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

b) odd numbers- 3,5,7

No. Of outcomes - 3

Probability = 3/8

c) no. greater than 2- 3,4,5,6,7,8

No. Of outcomes =6

Probablility = 6/8 = 3/4

d) numbers less than 9 - 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8

No. Of outcomes - 8

Probability = 8/8 = 1

Answer 2

Answer:

Ans. Out of 8 numbers, an arrow can point any of the numbers in 8 ways.

Total number of favourable outcomes = 8

(i) Favourable number of outcomes = 1

Hence, P (arrow points at 8) =

(ii) Favourable number of outcomes = 4

Hence, P (arrow points at an odd number) =

(iii) Favourable number of outcomes = 6

Hence, P (arrow points at a number > 2) =

(iv) Favourable number of outcomes = 8

Hence, P (arrow points at a number < 9) = =1
