Question

A number x is selected at random from the numbers 1, 2, 3, and 4. Another number y is
selected at random from the numbers 1, 4,9 and 16. Find the probability that product of x
and y is less than 16.​

Answer 1

see the attachment for solution. answer is 1/2

Answer 2

Answer:

Number of possible outcomes for x is 1,2,3,4=4

Number of possible outcomes for y is 1,4,9,16=4

Since they are selected at random, hence each has equal in number of possibilities.

Therefore, total outcomes =16 (like a dice question making a box and writing the products as 4×4)

Favourable outcomes =8.

Probability that product of x and y is less than 16= 168=21
