★ REQUIRED QUALITY ANSWER
Answers
Answer:
Perfect square means a number that can be expressed in form of a product of two integers that are equal.
For examples 9, 16, 25 etc
Between 6 and 50 the perfect squares in between are :9, 16, 25, 36, 49
So total number b/w 6 to 50 which are perfect square is = 5
Total possible outcomes = 45 (number from 6 to 50)
The probability that the drawn card has a number that is a perfect square is = Number of events/Total possible outcomes
= 5/45
= 1/9 is the answer
Step-by-step explanation:
Q)) A box contains cards numbered from 6 to 50 . A card is drawn at random from the box. Calculate the probability that the drawn card has a number which is a perfect square .
• Probability = It means possibility of occurence of any particular event. It may range from 0 to 1 .
• In this question, we are given with cards, which are numbered.
• To solve this question, we would find the favorable outcomes of the given condition and divide it with the toatal number of outcomes.
• Probability is a unit-less quantity.
Total Outcomes = Total cards = 50-6+1 = 45 .
Perfect square numbers between 6 and 50 are : 9 , 16 , 25 , 36 , 49 .
so,
Favorable Outcomes = 5 .
We know -
Put the values
So,
The probability that the drawn card has a number which is a perfect square would be
