A two digit number is formed from the digits 2,3,5,7 without repetition. what is the probability if the number formed is a prime number?
Answers
Answer:
S = ( 23, 25, 27, 32, 35, 37, 52, 53, 57, 72, 73, 75 )
n(S) = 12
Event A = Getting a prime number
A = ( 23, 37, 53, 73 )
n(A) = 4
P(A) = n(A) / n(S)
= 4/12
P(A)= 1/3

The probability will be ⅓
Given : A two digit number is formed from the digits 2,3,5,7 without repetition.
To find : What is the probability if the number formed is a prime number?
Solution :
We can simply solve this mathematical problem by using the following mathematical process. (our goal is to calculate the required probability)
Now, the two digit numbers formed by the given digits :
= 23,25,27,32,35,37,52,53,57,72,73,75
Number of formed numbers = 12
Now, the prime numbers (the numbers which are only divisible by 1 and by themselves) are :
= 23,37,53,73
Number of prime numbers = 4
The required probability :
= Number of favourable outcomes ÷ Total number of possible outcomes
= Number of prime numbers ÷ Number of formed numbers
= 4÷12
= ⅓
(This will be considered as the final result.)
Hence, the probability will be ⅓
