Question

A point is chosen randomly on JM. Identify the probability that the point is not on JK or KL. HELP ASAP!!

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{4}{11}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

On line JM

To find the probability that a point doesn't lies on the line JK & KL (i.e., JL)

Solution :

Probability of an event = $\frac{Number \ of \ favourable \ outcomes}{Total \ number \ of \ possible \ outcomes}$

⇒ $\frac{Length \ of \ line \ LM}{length \ of \ line \ JM}$

⇒$\frac{24}{8 + 34 + 24} = \frac{24}{66} = \frac{4}{11}$
