Question

Archana calculate that probability of winning the first price in a lottery is 0.04. If 12000 tickets are sold how many tickets has she brought?

Answer 1

Answer: 480

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The total number of tickets sold = 12000

The probability of winning the first price in a lottery= 0.04

Let x be the number of tickets she brought then the probability of winning the first price in a lottery will be

$P=\frac{x}{total\ tickets\ sold}\\\\\Rightarrow\ 0.04=\frac{x}{12000}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=12000\times0.04\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=480$

Therefore, The number of tickets she brought = 480

Answer 2

answer- therefore total 480 tickets she brought
