cards marked with all 2 digit numbers are placed in a box and mixed thoroughly. one card is drawn at random find the probability that the number on the card is 1)divisible by 10
2)a perfect square 3)a prime number less than 25
Answers
P(divisible by 10) = 9/90 = 1/10 =0.1
P(a perfect square) = 6/90
P(prime no less than 25) = 5/90
That's all !!

Given:
Cards marked with all 2 digit numbers are placed in a box
To Find:
If one card is drawn at random, the probability that the number is
1) Divisible by 10
2) A perfect square
3) A prime number less than 25
Solution:
We can simply solve this problem by using the following mathematical process.
The two digit numbers are 10, 11, 12, 13, .......,99
Total number of two digit numbers = (99−9) = 90
1) To find the probability of the number being divisible by 10
Favourable outcomes are = (10,20,30,40,50,60,70,80,90)
Number of favourable outcomes = 9
P(Divisible by 10) = Number of favourable outcomes ÷ Total number of outcomes
Probability =
Probability =
2) To find the probability of the number being a perfect square
Favourable outcomes are = (16,25,36,49,64,81)
Number of favourable outcomes = 6
P(A perfect square number) = Number of favourable outcomes ÷ Total number of outcomes
Probability =
Probability =
3) To find the probability of the number being a prime number less than 25
Favourable outcomes are = (2,3,5,7,11,13,17,19,23)
Number of favourable outcomes = 9
P(A prime number less than 25) = Number of favourable outcomes ÷ Total number of outcomes
Probability =
Probability =
Hence, the required probabilities are and .
