Question

If in a cricket match, a batswoman hits the boundary 8 times out of 50 balls, then the probability that she did not hit the boundary is________

Answer 1

Probability that she did not hit the boundary is  $\frac{42}{50}$  or 0.84.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that in a cricket match, a bats woman hits the boundary 8 times out of 50 balls.

And we have to find the probability that she did not hit the boundary.

As we know that, Probability of an event  =  $\frac{\text{Favorable number of outcomes}}{\text{Total number of outcomes}}$

Also, the value of probability lies between 0 and 1.

Now, Probability that she did not hit the boundary =

                       $\frac{\text{Number of times she did not hit the boundary}}{{\text{Total number of balls faced}}}$

Here, No. of times she did not hit the boundary = 50 - 8 = 42

And Total number of balls faced = 50

So, Probability that she did not hit the boundary  =  $\frac{42}{50}$ = 0.84.
