Okay let us pick out all the odd numbers from the likely outcomes
1, 3, 5, 7
Number of possible outcomes = 8
Number of odd number outcomes= 4
Probability of getting an odd number = 4/8= 1/2

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
