an unbiased die is thrown what is the probability of getting an even number and multiple of 3 2nd a number between 3 and 6
Answers
Answer:
In a single throw of an unbiased dice, you can get any one of the outcomes: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6.
So, exhaustive number of cases = 6.
(i) An even number is obtained if you obtain any one of 2, 4, 6 as an outcome.
So, favourable number of cases = 3.
Thus, required probability = 3/6 = 1/2
(ii) A multiple of 3 is obtained if you obtain any one of 3, 6 as an outcome.
So, favourable number of cases = 2
Thus, required probability = 2/6 = 1/3
(iii) An even number or a multiple of 3 is obtained in any of the following outcomes 2, 3, 4, 6.
So, favourable number of cases = 4.
Thus, required probability = 4/6 = 2/3
(iv) An even number and a multiple of 3 is obtained if you get 6 as an outcome.
So, favourable number of cases = 1.
Thus, required probability = 1/6
Let the sample space of dice be 'P'
p = { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 }
n(S) = {6}
let the sample space of getting an even no. be 'A'
p = { 2, 4, 6 }
n(A) = {3}
The probability is -
p = n(A)
n(S)
= 3
6
°p = 1
2
pls confirm the second probability which u want
